Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 Family, Member A1 (ALDH1A1) Active Protein | ALDH1A1 active protein
Active Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 Family, Member A1 (ALDH1A1)
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Store at 2-8 degree C for one month.
Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months.
Stability Test:
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Activity Data
(ALDH1A1 (Retinal dehydrogenase 1) which belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family, is the next enzyme after alcohol dehydrogenase in the major pathway of alcohol metabolism. ALDH1A1 converts retinaldehyde to retinoic acid. IL21 (interleukin 21) was identified as an interactor of ALDH1A1 through Affinity Capture-MS. Thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human ALDH1A1 and recombinant human IL21. Briefly, ALDH1A1 were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01%BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL ALDH1A1 were then transferred to IL21-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-ALDH1A1 pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of ALDH1A1 and IL21 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Accurate Molecular Mass: 58kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE reducing conditions.
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family. Aldehyde dehydrogenase is the next enzyme after alcohol dehydrogenase in the major pathway of alcohol metabolism. There are two major aldehyde dehydrogenase isozymes in the liver, cytosolic and mitochondrial, which are encoded by distinct genes, and can be distinguished by their electrophoretic mobility, kinetic properties, and subcellular localization. This gene encodes the cytosolic isozyme. Studies in mice show that through its role in retinol metabolism, this gene may also be involved in the regulation of the metabolic responses to high-fat diet. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
