Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase, mitochondrial precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-HMGCL antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

HMGCL (3-hydroxymethyl-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase) is a homodimeric mitochondrial enzyme. It is a key modulator of ketogenesis and l-leucine catabolism. During ketogenesis, it catalyzes the cation-dependent cleavage reaction to form acetyl-CoA and acetoacetate. This cleavage reaction generates ketone bodies to support the energy requirements. Its activity is highly dependent on the divalent cation such as Mg2+, Mn2+ and stimulated by reducing agents (DTT). Deficiency of HMGCL causes a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder, 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric aciduria.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Altered metabolism is considered as a hallmark of cancer. Here we investigated expression of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) 2 lyase (HMGCL), an essential enzyme in ketogenesis, which produces ketone bodies by the breakdown of fatty acids to supply energy, in nasopharyngeal

Human 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase catalyzes formation of acetyl-CoA and acetoacetate in a reaction that requires divalent cation and is stimulated by sulfhydryl protective reagents. The enzyme is a homodimer and inter-subunit adducts form in the absence of reducing agents or upon
