Description
HPRT1 Polyclonal Antibody (CAB21825)
The HPRT1 Polyclonal Antibody (ABM-AB-4970) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the HPRT1 gene, which encodes for the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase 1. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the salvage pathway of purine biosynthesis, making it essential for DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. Raised in rabbits, this antibody is highly specific and reactive with human samples, making it suitable for Western blot applications. By binding to the HPRT1 protein, researchers can accurately detect and analyze its expression levels in various cell types. This makes it an ideal reagent for studies in genetics, cancer research, and drug development.
The HPRT1 gene mutations are associated with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, a rare inherited disorder characterized by neurological and behavioral abnormalities. Understanding the function and regulation of HPRT1 is important for uncovering the molecular mechanisms underlying purine metabolism disorders and identifying potential therapeutic targets. This antibody facilitates the investigation of HPRT1 expression patterns and activity, providing valuable insights into its role in human health and disease.

The protein encoded by this gene is a transferase, which catalyzes conversion of hypoxanthine to inosine monophosphate and guanine to guanosine monophosphate via transfer of the 5-phosphoribosyl group from 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate. This enzyme plays a central role in the generation of purine nucleotides through the purine salvage pathway. Mutations in this gene result in Lesch-Nyhan syndrome or gout.
