Product Name :
ALDH4A1 monoclonal antibody Background :
Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) mediate NADP+-dependent oxidation of aldehydes into acids during detoxification of alcohol-derived acetaldehyde, lipid peroxidation and metabolism of corticosteroids, biogenic amines and neurotransmitters. ALDH4A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 4 family member A1), also known as P5CD (Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase), P5CDh, P5CDhL, P5CDhS or ALDH4, is a major enzyme involved in the proline degradation pathway. Localizing to the mitochondrial matrix, ALDH4A1 catalyzes the conversion of Delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) to glutamate. A mutation in the gene encoding ALDH4A1 results in HPII (hyperprolinemia type II), a disease characterized by an excess of P5C and proline that is associated with mental retardation and seizures.

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
