ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Target description

1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase PNPLA3 (UniProt: Q9NST1; also known as EC:2.3.1.51, Acylglycerol transacylase, Adiponutrin, ADPN, Calcium-independent phospholipase A2-epsilon, iPLA2-epsilon, Lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase, Patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3) is encoded by the PNPLA3 (also known as ASPN1, C22orf20) gene (Gene ID: 80339) in human. PNPLA3 is a single-pass type II membrane protein with an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain (aa 1-41), a transmembrane domain (aa 42-62), and long C-terminal lumenal domain (aa 63-481). It specifically catalyzes coenzyme A (CoA)-dependent acylation of 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (2-lysophosphatidic acid/LPA) to generate phosphatidic acid (PA), which is an important metabolic intermediate and precursor for both triglycerides and glycerophospholipids. It does not esterify other lysophospholipids. It possesses low triacylglycerol lipase and CoA-independent acylglycerol transacylase activities and thus may play a role in acyl-chain remodeling of triglycerides. Its levels are down-regulated following a low-calorie diet and refeeding is shown to elevate its mRNA levels. Mutations in PNPLA3 gene is reported to cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease 1 that is characterized by accumulation of triglycerides in the liver, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia. A sequence variant (I148M) in PNPLA3 is shown to be a major genetic risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. This substitution causes a major reduction in triglyceride hydrolase activity of the enzyme. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Reconstitution

300 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
