PANK2 Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein belonging to the pantothenate kinase family and is the only member of that family to be expressed in mitochondria. Pantothenate kinase is a key regulatory enzyme in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA) in bacteria and mammalian cells. It catalyzes the first committed step in the universal biosynthetic pathway leading to CoA and is itself subject to regulation through feedback inhibition by acyl CoA species. Mutations in this gene are associated with HARP syndrome and pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN), formerly Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome. Alternative splicing, involving the use of alternate first exons, results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
PANK2: a pantothenate kinase that catalyzes the first committed step in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A, an essential cofactor in cellular metabolism. PANK2 is predominantly localized in mitochondria in primates. Defects in PANK2 are the cause of pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN), an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder associated with iron accumulation in the brain. Three isoforms of the human PANK2, produced by alternative splicing, have been reported.

Product Notes
The PANK2 pank2 (Catalog #AAA822875) is a Blocking Peptide produced from Synthetic and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PANK2 Blocking Peptide reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PANK2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Blocking (BL). Blocking Peptide to the diluted primary antibody in a molar ratio of 10:1 (peptide to antibody) and incubate the mixture at 4 degree C for overnight or at room temperature for 2 hours. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PANK2 pank2 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 "PANK2, 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
