NB5R2 rabbit pAb

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the flavoprotein pyridine nucleotide Cytochrome reductase family of proteins. Cytochrome b-type NAD (P)H oxidoreductases are implicated in many processes including cholesterol biosynthesis, fatty acid desaturation and elongation, and respiratory burst in neutrophils and macrophages. Cytochrome b5 reductases have soluble and membrane-bound forms that are the product of alternative splicing. In animal cells, the membrane-bound form binds to the endoplasmic reticulum, where it is a member of a fatty acid desaturation complex. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
