Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set 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

ACADL (Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase, long chain) is a mitochondrial flavoenzyme. It is highly expressed in human skeletal muscles and to a lesser extent in liver, fibroblast and heart tissues. It is involved in the first stage of branched long-chain fatty acid (LCFA) β-oxidation. During fatty acid β-oxidation, it interacts with 2,6-dimethylheptanoyl-CoA and catalyzes the degradation of double-bonded unsaturated fatty acid chain in the mitochondria. Mutation in ACADL causes deficiency of VLCAD (very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase) and MCAD (Medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase) with disrupted muscle function, myopathy, and cardiomyopathy.

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.

Oxidation of straight-chain fatty acids in mitochondria involves the complicated interaction between a large variety of different enzymes. So far four different mitochondrial straight-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenases have been identified. The physiological function of three of the four acyl-CoA dehydrogenases has
