Rabbit anti-Human, Mouse OAZ1 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-OAZ1 antibody
OAZ1 Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ornithine decarboxylase antizyme family, which plays a role in cell growth and proliferation by regulating intracellular polyamine levels. Expression of antizymes requires +1 ribosomal frameshifting, which is enhanced by high levels of polyamines. Antizymes in turn bind to and inhibit ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the key enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis; thus, completing the auto-regulatory circuit. This gene encodes antizyme 1, the first member of the antizyme family, that has broad tissue distribution, and negatively regulates intracellular polyamine levels by binding to and targeting ODC for degradation, as well as inhibiting polyamine uptake. Antizyme 1 mRNA contains two potential in-frame AUGs; and studies in rat suggest that alternative use of the two translation initiation sites results in N-terminally distinct protein isoforms with different subcellular localization. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have also been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]
Uniprot Description
OAZ1: Binds to, and destabilizes, ornithine decarboxylase which is then degraded. Also inhibits cellular uptake of polyamines by inactivating the polyamine uptake transporter. SMAD1/OAZ1/PSMB4 complex mediates the degradation of the CREBBP/EP300 repressor SNIP1. Belongs to the ODC antizyme family. 1 isoforms of the human protein are produced by ribosomal frameshifting.
Protein type: Inhibitor
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 19p13.3
Cellular Component: cytosol
Molecular Function: protein binding; ornithine decarboxylase inhibitor activity
Biological Process: transport; polyamine biosynthetic process; negative regulation of catalytic activity; positive regulation of protein catabolic process; regulation of amino acid metabolic process

Product Notes
The OAZ1 oaz1 (Catalog #AAA9403181) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The OAZ1 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's OAZ1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Immunohistochemistry: 1:50~1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the OAZ1 oaz1 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 "OAZ1, Polyclonal 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.Precautions
