Descripción

General description

Anti-Tryptophan Hydroxylase antibody, Mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG3 isotype) is derived from the WH-3 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from a BALB/c mouse immunized with recombinant rabbit Tryptophan Hydroxylase. Tryptophan Hydroxylase (TPH), also known as TpOH, TrpH or L-tryptophan tetrahydropteridine: oxygen oxidoreductase (EC 1.14.16.4) is a member of biopterin-dependent aromatic amino acid hydroxylases family, together with tyrosine hydroxylase and phenylalanine hydroxylase. This gene spanning 29kbp with 11 exons is mapped to human chromosome 11p15.3-p14. This 444 amino acid protein is expressed in the gut, spleen, thymus and also in the pineal gland and the pituitary.

Immunogen

recombinant rabbit Tryptophan Hydroxylase.

Application

Anti-Tryptophan Hydroxylase antibody, Mouse monoclonal has been used in:

• immunoblotting
• immunohistochemistry
• immunofluorescence

Biochem/physiol Actions

Tryptophan Hydroxylase (TPH) is a rate-limiting tetramer enzyme in the synthetic pathway of neurotransmitter serotonin from L-tryptophan and is considered a key factor for the maintenance of normal serotonin transmission in the central nervous system. The tryptophan hydroxylase 1 gene (TPH1) catalyzes the synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptophan. Mutation in the TPH1 gene leads to schizophrenia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in women, suicidal behavior and depressive disorders.The encoded protein plays a vital role in regulation of cardiovascular function.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
