Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain 5 (gene MT-ND5) in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 67.0 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 67 kDa.
ND5 (MT-ND5) is a mitochondrially encoded core subunit of NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, or complex I, the first and largest enzyme of the respiratory chain. It sits in the membrane arm of the complex, which passes electrons from NADH to ubiquinone while pumping protons, and it is needed for both complex I activity and assembly. It is studied in mitochondrial disease and cellular energy metabolism.

Immunogen
Recombinant human MT-ND5 fragment (Leu154–Gln570), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain 5 in the mitochondrion inner membrane. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
