Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Iron-sulfur protein (IP) subunit of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) that is involved in complex II of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and is responsible for transferring electrons from succinate to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q).
Scientific background (datasheet): SDHB (Succinate Dehydrogenase Complex, Subunit B, iron sulfur protein), also known as iron-sulfur subunit of complex II (Ip) or SDH2, HOMOLOG OF, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SDHB gene. SDHB is one of four protein subunits forming succinate dehydrogenase, the other three being SDHA, SDHC and SDHD. The SDHB subunit is connected to the SDHA subunit on the hydrophilic, catalytic end of the SDH complex. The SDHB gene is mapped on 1p36.13. The entire SDHB transcript is encoded by 8 exons within approximately 40 kb by Au et al (1995). Pollard et al. (2005) stated that the nuclear-encoded Krebs cycle enzymes fumarate hydratase and succinate dehydrogenases like SDHB act as tumor suppressors, and germline mutations in these genes predispose individuals to leiomyomas and renal cancer and to paragangliomas, respectively. In affected members of families with paragangliomas-4, mutations were identified in the SDHB gene.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Matrix side.
Tissue details (datasheet): Wide tissue distribution. Undetectable in placental tissue.
Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the succinate dehydrogenase/fumarate reductase iron-sulfur protein family.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Cancer,Cancer Metabolism,Cell Biology,Metabolic Signaling Pathway,Metabolism,Metabolism Of Carbohydrates,Mitochondrial,Mitochondrial Markers,Mitochondrial Metabolism,Oxidative Phosphorylation,Oxidative Stress,Pathways and Processes,Redox Metabolism,Signal Transduction.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
