Application

All Prestige Antibodies®Powered by Atlas Antibodies 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. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

LPCAT1 (lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1) is a phospholipase that plays a major role in phospholipid remodeling. During remodeling, it converts acyl-CoA to lyso-phosphatidyl choline, by transferring fatty acids for the reconstitution of phosphatidyl choline (PC). The de-acylation and re-acylation by a lyso-PC acyl transferase is supported by LPCAT1 through the Land′s cycle. In addition, the protein expression has been found on the surface of lipid droplets, where it plays an important role in PC biosynthesis. It has been reported that LPCAT1 may play an essential role in cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

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.
