Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects cytochrome P450 2B6 (gene CYP2B6) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 56.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 56 kDa.
CYP2B6 is a liver cytochrome P450 enzyme that metabolizes drugs such as efavirenz, bupropion and cyclophosphamide, and also endocannabinoids and steroids. Its expression varies widely between people because of genetic variants and induction through nuclear receptors such as CAR and PXR, so it is studied in pharmacogenetics and drug-drug interactions.

Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the N-terminal region of human cytochrome P450 2B6/CYP2B6.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places cytochrome P450 2B6 in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and microsome membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in liver, lung and heart right ventricle. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
