Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: E.coli-derived human CYP24A1 recombinant protein (Position: E153-R514). Human CYP24A1 shares 86.2% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with both mouse and rat CYP24A1. (reported region: E153-R514).
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 59 kDa; calculated MW: 59 kDa
- Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: IHC, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) 24-hydroxylase, mitochondrial; 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) 24-hydroxylase, mitochondrial. This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. And this mitochondrial protein initiates the degradation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, the physiologically active form of vitamin D3, by hydroxylation of the side chain. In regulating the level of vitamin D3, this enzyme plays a role in calcium homeostasis and the vitamin D endocrine system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Functional note: Has a role in maintaining calcium homeostasis. Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent 24-hydroxylation of calcidiol (25- hydroxyvitamin D (3)) and calcitriol (1-alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (3)). The enzyme can perform up to 6 rounds of hydroxylation of calcitriol leading to calcitroic acid. It also shows 23- hydroxylating activity leading to 1-alpha,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (3)-26,23-lactone as end product. Reported localization: Mitochondrion. Expression/tissue context: Expressed in many tissues. .
