Anti-DDT Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
DDT, D-dopachrome tautomerization, converts D-dopachrome into 5, 6-dihydroxyindole. Northern blot analysis revealed that DDT was expressed as a 0.6-kb mRNA in all tissues tested, with the strongest expression in liver. The DDT gene in human and mouse is identical in exon structure to the MIF gene. Both genes have 2 introns that are located at equivalent positions, relative to a 2-fold repeat in protein structure.the genes for DDT and MIF are closely linked on human chromosome 22 and mouse chromosome 10.

D-dopachrome decarboxylase; D-dopachrome tautomerase; Phenylpyruvate tautomerase II; DDT
Gene Name
DDT

Host
Rabbit
Reactivity
Human, Mouse, Rat
Cross Reactivity
No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human DDT, which shares 80.6% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat DDT.
Clonality
Polyclonal
Tissue Specificity
Expressed abundantly in the bone marrow. Expressed exclusively by eosinophils and basophils. Not detected in monocytes and neutrophils. Expressed in CD25-positive regulatory T-cells (Treg) (at protein level) . Found in intestinal tissue from patients with Celiac disease, expression is ly related to the histological grade of mucosal damage and to the number of eosinophils found in the duodenal lesion (at protein level) . Found in sputum of patients with eosinophilic inflammatory diseases such as asthma (at protein level) .
