General description

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is an ubiquitous glycolytic enzyme present in reasonably high levels in almost all tissues. As a ′house-keeping′ enzyme, it catalyzes the synthesis of 1,3-biphosphoglycerate, a "high energy" intermediate used for the synthesis of ATP. Besides its cytoplasmic action in metabolism it is also involved in the initial stages of apoptosis or oxidative stress response where GAPDH is translocated to the nucleus. Such actions may reflect the role of GAPDH in DNA repair or as one nuclear carrier for apoptotic molecules. GAPDH has also been found to bind specifically to proteins implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of neurodegenerative disorders including the beta-amyloid precursor protein and the huntingtin protein where decreased function of GAPDH is associated with Alzheimer′s and Huntington′s disease fibroblasts. GAPDH has also been identified as a potential target for nitric oxide (NO)-mediated cellular toxicity. The complete and functional enzyme is a tetramer with each of four identical subunits occupying the vertex of a tetrahedron. Binding domains also include one principally interacting with NAD+ and another interacting with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP).

Specificity

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from skeletal muscle. Antibody also recognizes cardiac GAPDH. GAPDH enzyme is detected in many non-muscle cells lines including HeLa, HCT-116 cells, U937 and THP-1 cells among others.
Human, porcine, canine, rat, mouse, rabbit, cat, and fish skeletal muscle. It has been reported that this antibody does not react with GAPDH from E. coli.

Immunogen

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from rabbit muscle.

Application

Anti-Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Antibody, clone 6C5 is a well published and extensively characterized monoclonal antibody. This purified mAb detects Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH) & has been published & validated for use in ELISA, IP, IC, IF, IH & WB.
ELISA:
1:1,000,000 dilution of a previous lot ws used for Immunoaffinity purification of GAPDH.

Immunocytochemistry:
1:100 to 1:300 dilution of a previous lot was used in immunocytochemistry in PBS-BSA 10 mg/mL. 4% PFA, with 0.02% PBS-Triton X-100; 3 min RT (Griffoni, 2001).

Western blot:
1:100 to 1:300. Recognizes a 36kDa band of the reduced monomer. Non-reduced GAPDH runs as a 146kDa tetramer.

Immunoaffinity purification of GAPDH.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
