CST, 3188S, Aldolase A Antibody

Product Usage Information
Western Blotting: 1:1000
Storage
Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.
Protocol
Available protocols: Western Blotting
Specificity / Sensitivity
Aldolase A Antibody detects endogenous levels of total fructose bisphosphate aldolase A protein. This antibody may detect total fructose bisphosphate aldolase B and fructose bisphosphate aldolase C proteins.
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Hamster, Monkey
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro189 of human fructose-bisphosphate aldolase A protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.
Background
Aldolase (fructose bisphosphate aldolase), a glycolytic enzyme, catalyzes the conversion of fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate to 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde. This ubiquitous enzyme is present as three different isozymes: aldolase A, aldolase B, and aldolase C. Research studies suggest that aldolase A expression potentially differentiates between nonneoplastic liver diseases and hepatocarcinoma (1). Furthermore, investigators have shown that changes in aldolase B gene expression levels have been observed in certain patients with this primary tumor (2,3).
