Anti-GRIM19/NDUFA13 Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated

NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 13 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NDUFA13 gene. This gene encodes a subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I), which functions in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The protein is required for complex I assembly and electron transfer activity. The protein binds the signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) transcription factor, and can function as a tumor suppressor. The human protein purified from mitochondria migrates at approximately 16 kDa. Transcripts originating from an upstream promoter and capable of expressing a protein with a longer N-terminus have been found, but their biological validity has not been determined.

Expressed in breast, ductal and invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast, sporadic colorectal adenomas and carcinomas (at protein level) . Expressed in fetal brain. Expressed in lung, amygdala, eye, prostate, pancreatic and prostate cancers, head and neck tumors and embryonal tumor.

Acyl-CoA synthetases (ACSL) activates long-chain fatty acids for both synthesis of cellular lipids, and degradation via beta-oxidation. ACSL3 mediates hepatic lipogenesis (By similarity) . Preferentially uses myristate, laurate, arachidonate and eicosapentaenoate as substrates (By similarity) . Has mainly an anabolic role in energy metabolism. Required for the incorporation of fatty acids into phosphatidylcholine, the major phospholipid located on the surface of VLDL (very low density lipoproteins) . .
