Application

Anti-ACSS2 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 immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ACSS2 encodes a cytosolic enzyme, acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS). It is highly essential along with Hypoxia Inducible Factor 2 (HIF-2) for maximal colony formation, proliferation, migration, and invasion during stress. It stimulates the activation reaction of acetate for lipid synthesis and energy generation. Acetate plays a major role in almost all of the metabolic pathways. Monomeric form of the ACSS2 generates acetate in a ATP dependent reaction. The activity is controlled by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs). It is clinically associated with the cancer cell growth under low-oxygen and lipid-depleted conditions.

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.

Through suppressive subtractive hybridization, we identified a new gene whose transcription is induced by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs). The gene encodes acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS), the cytosolic enzyme that activates acetate so that it can be used for lipid synthesis

One hallmark of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is metabolic reprogramming, which involves elevation of glycolysis and upregulation of lipid metabolism. However, the mechanism of metabolic reprogramming is incompletely understood. Monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) promotes transport for lactate and pyruvate, which

Optimal stress signaling by Hypoxia Inducible Factor 2 (HIF-2) during low oxygen states or hypoxia requires coupled actions of a specific coactivator/lysine acetyltransferase, Creb binding protein (CBP), and a specific deacetylase, Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). We recently reported that acetylation of
