MONOCLONAL ANTI-GAPDH

Application

Monoclonal Anti-GAPDH antibody produced in mouse has been used in western blot, (1:5000), and (1:2,000).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) participates in energy metabolism. It might have extra glycolytic roles in DNA repair. GAPDH plays a key role in glycolysis and several non-glycolytic actions. GAPDH binds to microtubules and regulates microtubule bundling and aids in membrane fusion. GAPDH participates in gene transcription, DNA replication, and nuclear RNA export. GAPDH acts as a uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG) that plays a role in DNA repair. It also acts as a mediator for cell death. GAPDH may play a role in Alzheimer′s disease (AD). It can be a potential therapeutic target in chemotherapy. Overexpression of the GAPDH gene in the T cell lineage is associated with angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma.

General description

The product of this gene catalyzes an important energy-yielding step in carbohydrate metabolism, the reversible oxidative phosphorylation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate in the presence of inorganic phosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). The enzyme exists as a tetramer of identical chains. Many pseudogenes similar to this locus are present in the human genome. (provided by RefSeq)

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a classic glycolytic enzyme, is a multi-functional protein. It is mainly present in the cytoplasm. GAPDH is ubiquitously expressed. The GAPDH gene is located on human chromosome 12.
