General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-26343) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human CYP51A1, targeting the amino acid region 146–509 of the protein. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with Human CYP51A1 from mouse and rat. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. Lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase (cytochrome P450(51), CYP51A1) belongs to the evolutionarily conserved family of cytochrome P450 and catalyzes one of the key steps in cholesterol biosynthesis. CYP51A1 protein is targeted for degradation when exposed to nitric oxide generated under inflammatory conditions by NOS2 or released from NO donor compounds (PMID: 28830911). CYP51A1 is a prognostic marker in certain cancers, including Cervical squamous cell carcinoma, Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, Kidney chromophobe, and Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (PMID: 24711211).
DPABH-26343 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:1,000–1:5,000), IP (0.5-4.0 μg for 1.0-3.0 mg of total protein lysate) applications.
DPABH-26343 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, pH 7.3. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
