Overview
DDC Antibody / DOPA decarboxylase is an antibody targeting DDC. Host: Rabbit. Polyclonal. Format: Lyophilized. Applications: WB, IHC, IP, FACS.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: DDC.
- Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human DOPA decarboxylase/DDC was used as the immun….
- Species reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
DDC antibody detects Aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase, encoded by the DDC gene on chromosome 7p12.2. DDC antibody is widely used in neuroscience, metabolism, and clinical disorder research. DDC, also known as DOPA decarboxylase, catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-DOPA to dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptophan to serotonin, two critical neurotransmitters.
Common research applications
- WB: relative abundance and band pattern assessment using appropriate controls.
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
