Applicable Applications for anti-QPRT antibody
Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB)
Application Notes
FC: 1:100
IHC: 1:150
WB: 1:2000
Biological Significance
QPRT is a key enzyme in catabolism of quinolin ate, an intermediate in the tryptophan-nicotin amide adeninedinucleotide pathway. Quinolin ate acts as a most potent endogenous exitotoxin to neurons. Elevation of quinolinate levels in the brain has been linked to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease.
Cross-Reactivity
Human
Immunogen
QPRT antibody was raised in mouse using a full length recombinant protein of human QPRT (NP_055113) produced in HEK293T cells, as the immunogen.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C for short term storage. Aliquot and store at -20 degree C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a key enzyme in catabolism of quinolinate, an intermediate in the tryptophan-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide pathway. Quinolinate acts as a most potent endogenous exitotoxin to neurons. Elevation of quinolinate levels in the brain has been linked to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease.

Product Notes

The QPRT qprt (Catalog #AAA832964) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's QPRT can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). FC: 1:100 IHC: 1:150 WB: 1:2000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the QPRT qprt 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 "QPRT, Monoclonal 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.
