Gene Information

human ... SHMT1(6470)

General description

Cytoplasmic serine hydroxymethyltransferase or SHMT1 regulates the biosynthesis of thymidylate in mammals. SHMT1 catalyzes the conversion of serine to glycine, which also results in the formation of 5,10-methylene-tetrahydrofolate. Rises in SHMT1 activity have been linked to increased DNA synthesis in tumors and hence SHMT1 can have cancer therapeutic implications . Anti-SHMT1 antibody is specific for SHMT1 in humans.

Immunogen

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase, cytosolic recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-SHMT1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using protein array and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige. Anti-SHMT1 antibody is also suitable for use in indirect immunofluorescence.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is a ubiquitous enzyme found in all prokaryotes and eukaryotes. As an enzyme of the thymidylate synthase metabolic cycle, SHMT catalyses the retro-aldol cleavage of serine to glycine, with the resulting hydroxymethyl group being transferred to tetrahydrofolate

Previous work has shown that some cancer cells are highly dependent on serine/glycine uptake for proliferation. Although serine and glycine can be interconverted and either might be used for nucleotide synthesis and one-carbon metabolism, we show that exogenous glycine cannot
