Description
Immunogen
Dimethylaniline monooxygenase [N-oxide-forming] 3 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.
Biochem/physiol Actions
FMO3 (flavin containing monooxygenase 3) gene encodes a member of the flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) that are a group of drug-metabolizing enzymes functioning in the NADPH-dependent oxygenation of various nitrogen-,sulfur-, and phosphorous-containing xenobiotics such as therapeutics and toxicants. The expression of FMO3 may vary up to 20-fold among individuals depending on the rate at which xenobiotics are metabolized. This may be of pharmaceutical significance. The encoded protein is found to localize to the endoplasmic reticulum of several tissues. Defects in this gene may result in a lack of ability to metabolize foreign chemicals, which may cause adverse drug reactions and variability in the efficacy of treatment. Mutations in this gene cause the disorder trimethylaminuria, which is also called as fish-odor syndrome characterized by a secretion of odorous trimethylamine (TMA) in the breath, sweat and urine.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide
Other Notes
Corresponding Antigen APREST71614
