PDX1 Antibody (C-term)
Purified Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Pab)

Catalog # Source: Lot # Size:
AP2034b Rabbit SH030401I-J 0.1 mg
Concentration: Accession: Clone Name: Isotype:
0.25 mg/ml NP_003468, O00330 RB2861/2862 Rabbit Ig
Applications: Reactivity: MW (kDa):
WB, IHC, E H 54122 Da
Target/Specificity:
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from selected from the C-terminal region of human PDX1.
Other Names:
Pyruvate dehydrogenase protein X component, Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase-binding protein of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, E3-binding protein
Application Data:

The anti-PDX1 Pab (Cat. #AP2034b) is used in Western blot to detect PDX1 in mouse heart tissue lysate

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma.

Background:
PDX1, located in the mitochondrial matrix, is required for anchoring dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) to the dihydrolipoamide transacetylase (E2) core of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes of eukaryotes. This specific binding is essential for a functional PDH complex. Eukaryotic pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes are organized about a core consisting of the oligomeric dihydrolipoamide acetyl-transferase, around which are arranged multiple copies of pyruvate dehydrogenase, dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase and protein X bound by noncovalent bonds. Defects in PDHX are a cause of lacticacidemia. PDX1 belongs to the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase family and contains 1 lipoyl-binding domain.
