ZMPSTE24 Antibody

ZMPSTE24 is a member of the peptidase M48A family. This protein is a zinc metalloproteinase involved in the two step post-translational proteolytic cleavage of carboxy terminal residues of farnesylated prelamin A to form mature lamin A. Mutations in ZMPSTE24 gene have been associated with mandibuloacral dysplasia and restrictive dermopathy.The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc metalloprotease similar to yeast Ste24p. It is an integral membrane protein belonging to peptidase family M48 and is found in the endoplasmic reticulum and possibly in the Golgi compartment. It is thought to be involved in the proteolytic processing of farnesylated proteins.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store ZMPSTE24 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

ZMPSTE24 antibody can be used for detection of ZMPSTE24 by ELISA at 1:312500. ZMPSTE24 antibody can be used for detection of ZMPSTE24 by western blot at 0.5 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
