Target/Specificity | This AGXT2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 437-463 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human AGXT2. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | AGXT2 Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Function | Multifunctional aminotransferase with a broad substrate specifcity (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:24586340, PubMed:23023372). Catalyzes the conversion of glyoxylate to glycine using alanine as the amino donor (By similarity). Catalyzes metabolism of not L- but the D- isomer of D-beta-aminoisobutyric acid to generate 2-methyl-3- oxopropanoate and alanine (PubMed:24586340). Catalyzes the transfer of the amino group from beta-alanine to pyruvate to yield L-alanine and 3- oxopropanoate (By similarity). Can metabolize NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (NMMA), asymmetric NG,NG-dimethyl-L-arginine (ADMA) and symmetric NG,N'G-dimethyl-L-arginine (SDMA) (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:23023372). ADMA is a potent inhibitor of nitric-oxide (NO) synthase, and this activity provides mechanism through which the kidney regulates blood pressure (PubMed:20018850, PubMed:23023372). |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a class III pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent mitochondrial aminotransferase. It catalyzes the conversion of glyoxylate to glycine using L-alanine as the amino donor.
