    Product Information

    Product Usage Information

    This product is the carrier free version of product #63454. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol.

    This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

    BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity.

    Formulation

    Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na2HPO4, 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH2PO4, and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free.

    For standard formulation of this product see product #63454

    Storage

    Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    PGAM5 (Long Isoform) (E8C3L) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) recognizes endogenous levels of total PGAM5 long isoform protein. This antibody specifically recognizes the PGAM5 long isoform (UniProt #Q96HS1-1) and does not recognize the PGAM5 short isoform (UniProt #Q96HS1-2).

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human PGAM5 long isoform protein (UniProt #Q96HS1-1).

    Background

    Phosphoglycerate mutase family 5 (PGAM5) is a mitochondrial serine/threonine protein phosphatase (1,2). PGAM5 is required for necrosis induced by TNF-α or reactive oxygen species (2). In addition, PGAM5 dephosphorylates FUNDC1 to induce mitophagy under mitochondrial stresses (3). PGAM5 is also essential for RIPK1-mediated mitophagy activation during extracellular matrix (ECM) detachment of cancer cells (4). Furthermore, PGAM5 is cleaved by the protease presenilin-associated rhomboid-like protein (PARL) in response to mitochondrial stresses (such as induced by carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) treatment). The cleaved PGAM5, released from the mitochondrial membrane, dephosphorylates β-catenin in the cytosol leading to its stabilization. Increased levels of β-catenin stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis (5).
