Product Overview
Clone 6I4E7 is a mouse monoclonal antibody that recognizes phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase GPX4 in human samples and is validated for Western blot and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 22.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 19 kDa.
Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) is a selenoprotein that reduces phospholipid hydroperoxides directly within membranes. By preventing lipid peroxidation, it protects cells from ferroptosis, an iron-dependent form of cell death, making GPX4 a central target in ferroptosis, neurodegeneration and cancer research.
