Mouse NADP-dependent malic enzyme (ME1) ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a cytosolic, NADP-dependent enzyme that generates NADPH for fatty acid biosynthesis. The activity of this enzyme, the reversible oxidative decarboxylation of malate, links the glycolytic and citric acid cycles. The regulation of expression for this gene is complex. Increased expression can result from elevated levels of thyroid hormones or by higher proportions of carbohydrates in the diet. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
ME1: a ubiquitous lipogenic enzyme of the malic enzymes family. Converts (S)-malate + NADP+ ?? pyruvate + CO2 + NADPH. Levels of ME1 and ATP-citrate lyase mRNA, another lipogenic enzyme, are coordinately increased 5-7 fold during the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes into adipocytes. Up-regulated by short-term dietary restriction in mice. The cycling of pyruvate by ME1 generates cytosolic NADPH, whereas mitochondrial ME2 responds to elevated amino acids and serves to supply sufficient pyruvate for increased Krebs cycle flux when glucose is limiting.

Product Notes
The Mouse ME1 me1 (Catalog #AAA7247590) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA7247590 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse ME1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "NADP-dependent malic enzyme (ME1), ELISA Kit" 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
