Anti-ACOX1 Antibody Picoband®

The protein encoded by this gene is the first enzyme of the fatty acid beta-oxidation pathway, which catalyzes the desaturation of acyl-CoAs to 2-trans-enoyl-CoAs. It donates electrons directly to molecular oxygen, thereby producing hydrogen peroxide. Defects in this gene result in pseudoneonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, a disease that is characterized by accumulation of very long chain fatty acids. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

ACOX1; ACOX; Peroxisomal acyl-coenzyme A oxidase 1; AOX; EC 1.3.3.6; Palmitoyl-CoA oxidase; Straight-chain acyl-CoA oxidase; SCOX [Cleaved into: Peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase 1, A chain; Peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase 1, B chain; Peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase 1, C chain]

E.coli-derived human ACOX1 recombinant protein (Position: A605-E648) . Human ACOX1shares 93.2% and 90.9% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat ACOX1, respectively.
