OAT blocking peptide
OAT Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the mitochondrial enzyme ornithine aminotransferase, which is a key enzyme in the pathway that converts arginine and ornithine into the major excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. Mutations that result in a deficiency of this enzyme cause the autosomal recessive eye disease Gyrate Atrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. Related pseudogenes have been defined on the X chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]
Uniprot Description
OAT: Defects in OAT are the cause of hyperornithinemia with gyrate atrophy of choroid and retina (HOGA). HOGA is a slowly progressive blinding autosomal recessive disorder. Belongs to the class-III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 10q26
Cellular Component: mitochondrial matrix; mitochondrion
Molecular Function: identical protein binding; ornithine-oxo-acid transaminase activity; pyridoxal phosphate binding
Biological Process: amino acid biosynthetic process; arginine catabolic process to glutamate; arginine catabolic process to proline via ornithine; visual perception
Disease: Gyrate Atrophy Of Choroid And Retina

Product Notes
The OAT oat (Catalog #AAA9227911) 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 "OAT, 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
