Related Product Information for anti-LIPA antibody
The Lipase gene family is part of one of the largest genetic superfamilies in living organisms. Members of the AB hydrolase subfamily all contain an enzyme core with an alpha/beta sheet, not barrel, of eight beta-sheets connected by alpha-helices. The AB hydrolase subfamily plays a crucial role in the metabolism of lipids. Members of this family include hepatic lipase (HL), endothelial lipase(EL), lipoprotein lipase (LPL), pancreatic lipase (PL), gastric lipase (GL), LCAT, and lysosomal acid lipase (LAL). LAL is the important enzyme in the hydrolysis of triglycerides and cholesteryl esters in lysosomes. LAL has six potential N-glycosylation sites and one potential O-glycosylation site, and it is mediated by macrophage mannose receptors. Defects in the LAL gene have been linked to Wolman disease (WD) and CE storage disease (CESD), while overexpression of LAL leads to atherosclerosis.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes lipase A, the lysosomal acid lipase (also known as cholesterol ester hydrolase). This enzyme functions in the lysosome to catalyze the hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides. Mutations in this gene can result in Wolman disease and cholesteryl ester storage disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

Uniprot Description

LIPA: Crucial for the intracellular hydrolysis of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides that have been internalized via receptor- mediated endocytosis of lipoprotein particles. Important in mediating the effect of LDL (low density lipoprotein) uptake on suppression of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase and activation of endogenous cellular cholesteryl ester formation. Defects in LIPA are the cause of Wolman disease (WOD). WOD is a severe manifestation of LIPA deficiency, leading to the accumulation of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides in most tissues of the body. WOD occurs in infancy and is nearly always fatal before the age of 1 year. Defects in LIPA are the cause of cholesteryl ester storage disease (CESD). CESD is a mild manifestation of LIPA deficiency, leading to the accumulation of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides in most tissues of the body. It is characterized by late-onset. Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. Lipase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes

The LIPA lipa (Catalog #AAA3011536) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The LIPA Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's LIPA can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the LIPA lipa for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LIPA, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
