Anti-IDO-2/IDO2 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro550 Conjugated

IDO2 (Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 2), also called INDOLEAMINE 2,3-DIOXYGENASE-LIKE 1 or INDOL1, is an enzyme encoded by the INDOL1 gene which metabolizes tryptophan in the kynurenine pathway. By genomic sequence analysis, the INDOL1 gene is mapped on chromosome 8p12 just downstream of the INDO gene. And its exact cytogenetic location is 8p11.21. By database analysis using INDO as probe, followed by RT-PCR of total RNA from various tissues, IDO2 is cloned by human and mouse INDOL1. INDOL1 catabolizes tryptophan as determined by Kyn production, but unlike INDO, is inhibited by D-1-methyl-tryptophan (D-1MT) but not the L-1MT stereoisomer. The Gene Structure of the INDOL1 has 11 exons and spans 74 kb.

Tricarboxylate transport protein, mitochondrial; Citrate transport protein; CTP; Solute carrier family 25 member 1; Tricarboxylate carrier protein; SLC25A1; SLC20A3

Detected in brain. Detected at very much lower levels in heart, lung, placenta and skeletal muscle. Highly expressed in cerebellum, but also found in frontal cortex, hippocampus and basal ganglia.

Citrate transporter that mediates the exchange of mitochondrial citrate for cytosolic malate. Also able to mediate the exchange of citrate for isocitrate, phosphoenolpyruvate, cis- but not trans-aconitate and to a lesser extend maleate and succinate. Important for the bioenergetics of hepatic cells as it provides a carbon source for fatty acid and sterol biosyntheses, and NAD+ for the glycolytic pathway. Required for proper neuromuscular junction formation (Probable) .
