Target description

Perilipin-1 (UniProt: O60240; also known as Lipid droplet-associated protein) is encoded by the PLIN1 (also known as PERI, PLIN) gene (Gene ID: 5346) in human. Perilipins are lipid droplet (LD)- binding proteins that are required for optimal lipid storage and fatty acid release. In mammals, the perilipin family of comprises five members: perilipin, adipophilin, TIP47, S3-12 and MLDP/OXPAT (also named PLIN1-5. Perilpin-1 is a modulator of adipocyte lipid metabolism that is detected in adipocytes and is also shown to be expressed in hepatocytes of human steatosis liver. It coats lipid storage droplets to protect them from breakdown by hormone-sensitive lipase. It is shown to play a role in unilocular lipid droplet formation by activating cell death inducing DFFA like effector c (CIDEC). Their interaction promotes lipid droplet enlargement and directional net neutral lipid transfer. In adipocytes, perilipin-1 can undergo phosphorylation by protein kinase A that changes its conformation and permits lipolysis by hormone-sensitive lipase. Perilipin knockout mice are lean and display aberrant adipocyte lipolysis, enhanced leptin production, and resistance to diet-induced obesity. Mutations in PLIN1 gene are linked to familial lipodystrophy that is characterized by loss of subcutaneous adipose tissue primarily affecting the lower limbs, insulin-resistant diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypertension. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Reconstitution

0.3 mg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
