Description
CYP2C8 Antibody (PACO02537)
The CYP2C8 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO02537) is a vital tool for researchers studying the CYP2C8 enzyme, which plays a crucial role in drug metabolism and bioactivation in the liver. This antibody, generated in rabbits, exhibits strong reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By specifically binding to the CYP2C8 protein, this antibody enables accurate detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an essential component of studies in pharmacology and drug development.
CYP2C8 is a key member of the cytochrome P450 enzyme family, responsible for metabolizing a wide range of drugs, toxins, and endogenous compounds. Its involvement in drug metabolism pathways makes it a significant target for research into drug-drug interactions, personalized medicine, and drug toxicity. Understanding the function and regulation of CYP2C8 is essential for developing safe and effective therapeutic interventions that rely on accurate drug metabolism and bioactivation processes.

UniProt Protein Function: | CYP2C8: Cytochromes P450 are a group of heme-thiolate monooxygenases. In liver microsomes, this enzyme is involved in an NADPH-dependent electron transport pathway. It oxidizes a variety of structurally unrelated compounds, including steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics. In the epoxidation of arachidonic acid it generates only 14,15- and 11,12-cis-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids. It is the principal enzyme responsible for the metabolism the anti- cancer drug paclitaxel (taxol). Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and its expression is induced by phenobarbital. The enzyme is known to metabolize many xenobiotics, including the anticonvulsive drug mephenytoin, benzo(a)pyrene, 7-ethyoxycoumarin, and the anti-cancer drug taxol. This gene is located within a cluster of cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 10q24. Several transcript variants encoding a few different isoforms have been found for this gene.
