Peroxiredoxin 5 (PRDX5) Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Peroxiredoxin-5, mitochondrial(PRDX5) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P in Human, Mouse, Rat.
Background: PRDX5(peroxiredoxin 5) also known as AOEB166, ACR1,B166, MGC117264, MGC142283, MGC142285, PLP, PMP20, PRDX6, PRXV, SBBI10, is a member of the peroxiredoxin family and may play an antioxidant protective role in various tissues under nonpathologic conditions and during inflammatory processes. The PRDX5 gene is mapped on 11q13.1. PRDX5 displays mitochondrial presequence features and has 3 cysteines implicated in antioxidant activity and a C-terminal SQL peroxisomal targeting sequence. Northern blot analysis revealed ubiquitous expression of a 1.0-kb PRDX5 transcript in tissues and cell lines. Functional analysis showed that PRDX5 has antioxidant activity equivalent to that of CAT. While PRDX5 was localized to fibroblasts in normal tendon, it was localized to fibroblasts and endothelial cells in degenerative tendon. PRDX5 mRNA and protein levels increased at 12 hours, and the increase in PRDX5 expression correlated with reduced peroxide levels. PRDX5 plays a protective role against oxidative stress in human cartilage.

Small volumes of anti-PRDX5 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS176336 is an antibody targeting PRDX5. Also known as Anti-Peroxiredoxin 5 antibody. Reactive in Human, Rat; Predicted to work with mouse. Host: Rabbit.
