HSD17B4 blocking peptide
HSD17B4 Antibody (Center) Blocking peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a bifunctional enzyme that is involved in the peroxisomal beta-oxidation pathway for fatty acids. It also acts as a catalyst for the formation of 3-ketoacyl-CoA intermediates from both straight-chain and 2-methyl-branched-chain fatty acids. Defects in this gene that affect the peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation activity are a cause of D-bifunctional protein deficiency (DBPD). An apparent pseudogene of this gene is present on chromosome 8. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.

Uniprot Description
HSD17B4: Bifunctional enzyme acting on the peroxisomal beta- oxidation pathway for fatty acids. Catalyzes the formation of 3- ketoacyl-CoA intermediates from both straight-chain and 2-methyl- branched-chain fatty acids. Defects in HSD17B4 are a cause of D-bifunctional protein deficiency (DBPD). DBPD is a disorder of peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation. Defects in HSD17B4 are the cause of Perrault syndrome (PRS). PRS is a sex-influenced disorder characterized by sensorineural deafness in both males and females and ovarian dysgenesis in females. Some patients also have neurologic manifestations, including mild mental retardation and cerebellar and peripheral nervous system involvement. Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.

Product Notes
The HSD17B4 hsd17b4 (Catalog #AAA9219192) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HSD17B4, Blocking Peptide" 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.Precautions
