Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects methylcrotonoyl-CoA carboxylase beta chain, mitochondrial (gene MCCC2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 61.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 61 kDa.
MCCC2 is the beta subunit of 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase, the mitochondrial enzyme that carboxylates 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA during leucine catabolism. It pairs with the biotin-carrying alpha subunit MCCC1 to form the active enzyme. Mutations in MCCC2 cause 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency, and it is studied in amino acid metabolism.
