Description:
Peroxiredoxin 3, also known as AOP-1, MER5, SP-22 or PRX3, is localized exclusively in mitochondria. The deduced 256-amino acid human protein shares 86% amino acid sequence similarity with the mouse protein, and significant similarity with both the human proliferation-associated gene A product and the mouse stress-induced peritoneal macrophage protein Msp23. The PRDX3 gene is mapped on 10q26.11. Expression of PRDX3 is induced by MYC and is reduced in c-myc -/- cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis spanning the entire PRDX3 genomic sequence revealed that MYC binds preferentially to a 930-bp region surrounding exon 1. Results using mitochondria-specific fluorescent probes demonstrated that PRDX3 is essential for maintaining mitochondrial mass and membrane potential in transformed rat and human cells. These data provided evidence that Peroxiredoxin 3 is a MYC target gene that is required to maintain normal mitochondrial function.
Storage:
After reconstitution, the Peroxiredoxin 3 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 deg. Celcius or lower. Cycles of freezing and thawing can denaturate the peptide chains of the antibodies and reduce their sensitivity and/or change their affinity. Prepare aliqotes in such a manner so that freeze-thaw cycles are minimized. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Species reactivity:
Human (Homo sapiens), Mouse (Mus musculus), Rat ; Due to limited knowledge and inability to test the antibody against all known species, we cannot guarantee that no other cross reactivity can occur.
Notes:
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the Peroxiredoxin 3 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
Immunogen:
An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of mouse PRDX3 (TIKPSPTASKEYFEKVHQ) was used as the immunogen for this Peroxiredoxin 3 antibody (100% rat homology).
