Description
QPRT Monoclonal Antibody [PAT24C4AT] (CPAB0233)
The QPRT Polyclonal Antibody (CPAB0233) is a high-quality research tool specifically designed for studying QPRT, an enzyme that plays a key role in the metabolism of tryptophan, an essential amino acid. This antibody, generated in rabbits, exhibits strong reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the QPRT protein, this antibody enables accurate detection and analysis in a variety of cell types, making it an excellent choice for studies in metabolic research and cancer biology.QPRT is a crucial enzyme involved in the kynurenine pathway, a metabolic pathway that contributes to the regulation of immune responses and maintenance of cellular homeostasis.
Dysregulation of the kynurenine pathway, including alterations in QPRT activity, has been implicated in various diseases, such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions. Investigating the function of QPRT using this antibody can provide valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms of these diseases and potentially lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting tryptophan metabolism.

Background: | QPRT is a key enzyme in the catabolism of quinolinate. QPRT is in between the tryptophannicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) pathway, resulting in the production of nicotinic acid, carbon dioxide and pyrophosphate. Rise of QPRT levels in the brain is related to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease. |
