ab110043 uses a high affinity capture antibody to selectively isolate fumarase (FH), removing all other enzymes. This allows for a highly specific fumarase assay with colorimetric (450 nm) readout by plate reader. The assay also includes a step to quantify the fumarase capture with colorimetric (600 nm) readout.

Product details
ab110043 (MS780) is a novel assay that uses a high affinity monoclonal capture antibody to selectively isolate fumarase (FH), which removes all other enzymes of the Krebs cycle and NAD+/NADH utilizing enzymes. After isolation and subsequent measurement of the enzyme's functional activity, the quantity of isolated FH is measured in the same well by adding a second monoclonal detector antibody, which is quantified using a colorimetric label (HRP). Both reactions take place in time-dependent manners proportional to the amount of enzyme captured in each well. By combining activity and quantity measurements, the enzyme's relative specific activity can be determined. Specific activity is useful for measuring up or down regulation of activity by site-specific modification or damage, and in response to specific inhibitors.

Biological function summary
Fumarase plays a critical role in cellular respiration by facilitating the conversion of fumarate to malate within the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. This enzyme does not operate as part of a larger protein complex but its activity is essential for maintaining the flow of carbon through the TCA cycle which is integral to energy production. Its activity is upregulated when cells require increased ATP generation.
Pathways
Fumarase participates prominently in the TCA cycle a vital pathway for aerobic respiration where it interconverts fumarate and malate. The enzyme supports cellular energy production and this is closely linked with other TCA cycle enzymes like isocitrate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase which further facilitate efficient energy conversion.
