Specificity of this antibody: proEPO.
EPX mediates tyrosine nitration of secondary granule proteins in mature resting eosinophils. Shows significant inhibitory activity towards Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv by inducing bacterial fragmentation and lysis. Allelic variant in EPX is associated with Japanese cedar pollinosis which is a type I allergic disease with ocular and nasal symptoms that develop paroxysmally on contact with Japanese cedar pollen. These symptoms, which occur seasonally each year, are typical features of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, excessive nasal secretion, nasal congestion, and conjunctival itching. Defects in EPX are the cause of eosinophil peroxidase deficiency (EPD). EPD is an autosomal recessive defect where anomalous eosinophils are characterized by nuclear hypersegmentation, hypogranulation, and negative peroxidase and phospholipid staining. Subcellular Location: Cytoplasmic granule.
