General description

Monoclonal Anti- Parkin (mouse IgG2b isotype) is derived from the hybridoma PRK8 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (SP2 cells) and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human Parkin. Parkin is an ubiquitin-protein ligase expresses in many tissues such as brain, testis, skeletal muscle and heart. The parkin gene encodes a protein of 465 amino acid residues with moderate similarity to ubiquitin at the amino-terminus and a ring in between ring fingers (IBR)-ring-finger motif at the carboxyl-terminus. The gene has 12 exons.
Parkin is an ubiquitin-protein ligase expresses in many tissues such as brain, testis, skeletal muscle and heart. It is a RING-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that facilitates the ubiquitination of misfolded proteins and protects from neurotoxic effect caused by these proteins. Monoclonal anti-parkin antibody can be used in microarray and immunoprecipitation assays. It can also be used in western blotting. Mouse anti-parkin antibody reacts specifically with parkin (50kD approx) of rat, hamster, mouse and human.

Immunogen

recombinant human Parkin.

Application

Monoclonal anti-parkin antibody has been used in:
  • Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
  • Immunoblotting
  • Immunoprecipitation[63}
  • Immunocytochemistry
  • to label parkin in pull-down assay

Physical form

Damaged mitochondria are eliminated through autophagy machinery. A cytosolic E3 ubiquitin ligase Parkin, a gene product mutated in familial Parkinsonism, is essential for this pathway. Recent progress has revealed that phosphorylation of both Parkin and ubiquitin at Ser(65) by PINK1

Heart failure, mostly associated with cardiac hypertrophy, is a major cause of illness and death. Oxidative stress causes accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting that mitochondria-targeted therapies could be effective in this context.
