Opis

General description

KAT (kynurenine aminotransferase, AADAT) II, a pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-dependent enzyme, is the primary enzyme in the brain for catalyzing the transamination of kynurenine to KγNA (kynurenic acid) and the transmination of aminoadipate to α-oxoadipate. Kynurenic acid, a neuroprotective compound, is an endogenous antagonist of ionotropic excitatory amino acid receptors in the central nervous system.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human AADAT

Application

Anti-kynurenine aminotransferase II (anti-Aminoadipate aminotransferase; anti-AADAT) is a rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody used to tag kynurenine aminotransferase protein for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in tissues by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. Selective KAT II inhibition may be an important pharmacological tool, since it would reduce KγNA formation without causing complete depletion of this neuroprotector.

Biochem/physiol Actions

AADAT is a protein that is highly similar to mouse and rat kynurenine aminotransferase II. The rat protein is a homodimer with two transaminase activities. One activity is the transamination of alpha-aminoadipic acid, a final step in the saccaropine pathway which is the major pathway for L-lysine catabolism. The other activity involves the transamination of kynurenine to produce kynurenine acid, the precursor of kynurenic acid which has neuroprotective properties.This gene encodes a protein that is highly similar to mouse and rat kynurenine aminotransferase II.

The other activity involves the transamination of kynurenine to produce kynurenine acid, the precursor of kynurenic acid which has neuroprotective properties. Two alternative transcripts encoding the same isoform have been identified, however, additional alternative transcripts and isoforms may exist.

Anti-AADAT polyclonal antibody (Anti-KAT-II) reacts with a sequence of the enzyme human aminoadipate aminotransferase (kynurenine aminotransferase II, hAADAT, KAT-II).

Physical form
