Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: UCH-L1/PGP9.5 Antibody (31A3) - IHC-Prediluted [NBP2-45339]

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: UCH-L1/PGP9.5 Antibody (31A3) - IHC-Prediluted [NBP2-45339] - Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human brain stained with UchL1 antibody (PGP9.5) (1:500), peroxidase-conjugate and DAB chromogen. Staining seen in cytoplasm, ER and membrane. Fixation in 95% ethanol/5% acetic acid for 2-3 hours prior to paraffin embedding is recommended. Specimens which have not been fixed in acetic acid/alcohol require pre-treatment with citrate buffer: for example, unmask of the target epitope by boiling the tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10 min followed by cooling at room temp for 20 min.

Background: UCH-L1/PGP9.5

Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase isozyme L1 (UCHL1) is a soluble cytoplasmic protein found in neurons and in cells of the diffuse neuroendocrine system, and their respective tumors. Therefore, UCH-L1 has been widely used as a peripheral nerve fiber marker. UCHL-1 functions as a tissue-specific ubiquitin carboxyl terminal hydrolase isoenzyme involved in the processing of both ubiquitin precursors and ubiquitinated proteins.

UCH L1 is down-regulated in brains from Parkinson disease and Alzheimer disease patients, and certian site specific mutations in the UCHL1 gene can either increase or decrese the risk of Parkinson's and/or Alzheimer's neurodegenerative diseases.

Human UCHL 1 and the closely related UCHL3 protein have one of the most complicated knot structures ever discovered, with five knot crossings. This knot structure is expected to help the protein resist degradation in the proteasome.
