This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-61590. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
This protein is a key enzyme in the catabolic pathway of odd-chain fatty acids, isoleucine, threonine, methionine, and valine. It is probably a dodecamer composed of six biotin-containing alpha subunits and six beta subunits. The protein is located in the mitochondrial matrix. Defects in PCCA are the cause o propionic acidemia type I (PA-1). PA-1 is a life-threatening disease characterized by episodic vomiting, lethargy and ketosis, neutropenia, periodic thrombocytopenia, hypogammaglobulinemia, develop-mental retardation, and intolerance to protein.
