Scientific Data Images for LCAT Antibody

Western Blot: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950]

Western Blot: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950]

Western Blot: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950] - Analysis of plasma LCAT protein mass. Plasma samples (0.2ul) from four hA-I Tg mice, four hA-I Tg SR-BI -/- mice, a LCAT-/- mouse, and purified mouse LCAT were fractionated on SDS-PAGE, and LCAT was detected by Western blot analysis using rabbit antiserum against mouse LCAT.
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950]

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: LCAT Antibody [NBP1-05950] - The LCAT antibody was tested at a 1:500 dilution in HeLa cells against Dylight 488 (Green). Alpha-tubulin and nuclei were counterstained against Dylight 550 (Red) and DAPI (Blue).

Western Blot

1:1000
Application Notes
In Western blot, a band is seen at ~62-65 kDa representing LCAT. Also has been shown to immunodeplete LCAT from mouse plasma, suggesting it should work fine for Immunoprecipitation (PMID: 18583707).

Background: LCAT

Lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is the plasma enzyme responsible for most HDL cholesteryl esters in human plasma. In species with cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) it is also responsible for a significant proportion of VLDL and LDL cholesteryl esters. LCAT, through the esterification of cholesterol, plays a role in the reverse cholesterol transport pathway by facilitating the net movement of cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver for excretion. LCAT deficiency results in low levels of plasma HDL, whereas a transgenic overexpression of LCAT results in increased plasma HDL concentrations.
