Product Overview
Clone AABB-3 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes aromatase (gene CYP19A1) in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and immunoprecipitation. The predicted molecular weight is 57.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 50 kDa.
Aromatase (CYP19A1) is the cytochrome P450 enzyme that converts androgens into estrogens, turning androstenedione into estrone and testosterone into estradiol. It is expressed in the ovary, placenta, adipose tissue, bone and brain, and it is the target of aromatase inhibitors used in breast cancer, so it is central to studies of estrogen biology and hormone-dependent cancers.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 1:500–1:2000 |
|---|---|
| Immunoprecipitation | 1:20 |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human A549 cells, human Caco-2 cells, human 293T cells, human HepG2 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 10% SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 1:500 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human aromatase.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places aromatase in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and microsome membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Widely expressed, including in adult and fetal brain, placenta, skin fibroblasts, adipose tissue and gonads. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
