Anti-MUTYH antibody produced in rabbit, 1 X 100 µL (HPA008732-100UL)

MUTYH (mutY DNA glycosylase) is a key enzyme of the human DNA repair system. It is expressed in several isoforms, of which two are predominant- type1 mitochondrial and type2 nuclear form. This gene is localized to human chromosome 1p34.1 and spans 11.2kb. All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information. Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals. A/G-specific adenine DNA glycosylase recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) MUTYH (mutY DNA glycosylase) is a part of the DNA glycosylase-initiating base excision repair, where it catalyzes the excision of mispaired adenine with 8-Hydroxyguanine (8OHG) is double-stranded DNA. Biallelic germline inactivating mutations in this gene are responsible for MUTYH-associated polyposis, which results in multiple colorectal polyps and carcinoma. Studies in a Japanese patient show that p.Arg109Trp variant of this gene results in dysfunctional MUTYH enzyme. This results in early-onset colorectal cancer. Inactivation of this gene leads to genetic instability in lymphoblastoid cell lines, which is dependent on the degree of inactivation. Biallelic mutations in this gene are also responsible for Lynch-like syndrome (LLS), which is characterized by tumors containing mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency, without association with germline mutations or somatic methylation of MMR genes. Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: •IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. •Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
