PTPLA Antibody (N-term) [AMR09653G]

Tissue Location: Isoform 1 is highly expressed in the myocardium, and to a lesser extent in skeletal and smooth muscular tissues including those from stomach, jejunum, and bladder. Also detected in gingival fibroblasts, periodontal ligament cells, osteoblasts and cementoblasts (PubMed:11054553, PubMed:22067203) . Isoform 2 is specifically expressed by cementoblasts but also detected in periodontal ligament cells, heart, liver and kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:22067203) .

Very-long-chain (3R) -3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 1, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 1, HACD1, Cementum attachment protein, Protein-tyrosine phosphatase-like member A, PTPLA, HACD1

Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.

[Isoform 1]: Catalyzes the third of the four reactions of the long-chain fatty acids elongation cycle. This endoplasmic reticulum- bound enzymatic process, allows the addition of two carbons to the chain of long- and very long-chain fatty acids/VLCFAs per cycle. This enzyme catalyzes the dehydration of the 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA intermediate into trans-2,3-enoyl-CoA, within each cycle of fatty acid elongation. Thereby, it participates in the production of VLCFAs of different chain lengths that are involved in multiple biological processes as precursors of membrane lipids and lipid mediators.
