Functional context (as provided): Plays important roles in the production of 11-cis retinal and in visual pigment regeneration. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-trans-retinol), making it available for LRAT processing to all-trans-retinyl ester. The membrane form, palmitoylated by LRAT, binds all-trans-retinyl esters, making them available for IMH (isomerohydrolase) processing to all-cis- retinol. The soluble form is regenerated by transferring its palmitoyl groups onto 11-cis-retinol, a reaction catalyzed by LRAT. The enzymatic activity is linearly dependent of the expression levels and membrane association. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Retinal pigment epithelium specific. .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eResearch context keywords from the source record include: Cancer,Cancer Metabolism,Carbohydrate Metabolism,Energy Metabolism,Energy Transfer Pathways,Metabolic Signaling Pathway,Metabolic Signaling Pathways,Metabolism,Metabolism Of Carbohydrates,Pathways and Processes,Signal Transduction,Tumor Biomarkers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent studies often focus on connecting target abundance\/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting (WB):\u003c\/strong\u003e assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunohistochemistry (IHC):\u003c\/strong\u003e evaluate spatial distribution of target-positive staining in tissue architecture.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunofluorescence\/ICC (IF\/ICC):\u003c\/strong\u003e visualize subcellular localization patterns and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow cytometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorkflow ideas (metafield): Validate LDHA antibody specificity using KO\/KD control samples (WB\/IF\/IHC as appropriate), Detect LDHA expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect LDHA in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Localize LDHA by immunofluorescence\/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Quantify LDHA-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eConsider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 37 kDa; calculated MW: 36689 MW).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO\/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eAdditional product details (from the source record)\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMolecular weight (observed):\u003c\/strong\u003e 37 kDa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCellular localization (provided):\u003c\/strong\u003e Cytoplasm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTissue details (provided):\u003c\/strong\u003e Retinal pigment epithelium specific. .\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - Antibodies — a laboratory manual overview — Cold Spring Harbor Protocols — https:\/\/cshprotocols.cshlp.org\/ - UniProt Knowledgebase — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/ - NCBI Gene — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/ - Antibody validation and reproducibility — Nature methods (collections) — https:\/\/www.nature.com\/collections\/ - Immunohistochemistry\/Immunofluorescence basics — NIH \/ NCBI Bookshelf — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/books\/ --\u003e","brand":"Boster Bio","offers":[{"title":"100 uL\/vial \/ Unconjugated","offer_id":53071977906541,"sku":"M00825-1","price":370.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/m00825-1-ldha-primary-antibodies-wb-testing-1.jpg?v=1773146958","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/anti-ldha-rabbit-monoclonal-antibody-bha21009615","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
