The Acad8 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO07542) is a valuable tool for researchers studying Acad8, a key enzyme involved in fatty acid metabolism. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the Acad8 protein, it allows for accurate detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an ideal choice for studies in metabolism, energy production, and mitochondrial function.Acad8, also known as acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family member 8, plays a crucial role in the breakdown of fatty acids for energy production.
Dysregulation of Acad8 has been linked to metabolic disorders, mitochondrial dysfunction, and neurodegenerative diseases. Research into Acad8 function is essential for developing targeted therapies for these conditions and understanding the broader implications of fatty acid metabolism in overall health and disease. With its specificity and reliability, the Acad8 Polyclonal Antibody is a valuable asset for scientists investigating these important biological processes.

NCBI Summary:
This gene encodes a member of the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family of enzymes that catalyze the dehydrogenation of acyl-CoA derivatives in the metabolism of fatty acids or branch chained amino acids. The encoded protein is a mitochondrial enzyme that functions in catabolism of the branched-chain amino acid valine. Defects in this gene are the cause of isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2009]
