Anti-Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase/OTC Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated

Selected Variant

A00721-1-Fluoro647

Size: 100 µg/Vial

Product Specifications

Background

Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) (also called ornithine carbamoyltransferase) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction between carbamoyl phosphate (CP) and ornithine (Orn) to form citrulline (Cit) and phosphate (Pi) . This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial matrix enzyme. Missense, nonsense, and frameshift mutations in this enzyme lead to ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, which causes hyperammonemia. Since the gene for this enzyme maps close to that for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, it may also play a role in that disease.
