Vendor description (summary): Boster Bio Anti-ASS1 Antibody Picoband® (monoclonal, 7I9) catalog # M02212-2.
Biological background
Biological context: ATP dependent phosphorylation of adenosine and other related nucleoside analogs to monophosphate derivatives. Serves as a potential regulator of concentrations of extracellular adenosine and intracellular adenine nucleotides.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus. Cytoplasm., tissue context: Widely expressed. Highest level in placenta, liver, muscle and kidney..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare ASS1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of ASS1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify ASS1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Argininosuccinate synthetase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ASS1 gene. It is mapped to 9q34.11. The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the penultimate step of the arginine biosynthetic pathway. There are approximately 10 to 14 copies of this gene including the pseudogenes scattered across the human genome, among which the one located on chromosome 9 appears to be the only functional gene for argininosuccinate synthetase. Mutations in the chromosome 9 copy of this gene cause citrullinemia. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus. Cytoplasm.
- Tissue details: Widely expressed. Highest level in placenta, liver, muscle and kidney.
- Research category: DNA/RNA,Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling,Ribosome,RNA Processing,Translation
