Anti-Fatty Acid Synthase/FASN Antibody Picoband® (APC Conjugate)

Fatty acid synthase  (FAS) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FASN gene. It is mapped to 17q25. The enzyme encoded by this gene is a multifunctional protein. Its main function is to catalyze the synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of NADPH, into long-chain saturated fatty acids. In some cancer cell lines, this protein has been found to be fused with estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), in which the N-terminus of FAS is fused in-frame with the C-terminus of ER-alpha.

E. coli-derived human FASN recombinant protein (Position: M1-E226). Human FASN shares 90.3% and 90.7% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat FASN, respectively.

Fatty acid synthetase catalyzes the formation of long- chain fatty acids from acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH. This multifunctional protein has 7 catalytic activities and an acyl carrier protein.
