We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody. Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.

Supplementary information

ACAA2 also known as acetyl-CoA acyltransferase 2 or 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase plays an important role in the mechanical process of fatty acid oxidation. It functions in the mitochondria where it catalyzes the final step of the beta-oxidation pathway facilitating the conversion of acetoacetyl-CoA to two molecules of acetyl-CoA. This protein has a known mass of approximately 43 kDa. ACAA2 is expressed in tissues with high energy demands such as the liver heart and muscle highlighting its significance in energy metabolism.
Biological function summary

The enzyme catalyzes reactions in energy metabolism by breaking down fatty acids to generate energy. ACAA2 functions as part of the complex mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation machinery. This process supports energy production particularly under conditions of carbohydrate depletion. The production of acetyl-CoA by ACAA2 is important for the TCA cycle through which cells generate ATP the primary energy carrier.

Pathways

Acetyl-CoA acyltransferase 2 plays significant roles in both the fatty acid beta-oxidation and ketogenesis pathways. In the beta-oxidation pathway it works together with other enzymes like CPT1A and HADHB to efficiently break down fatty acids. In ketogenesis acetyl-CoA units produced by ACAA2 are directed towards the formation of ketone bodies which serve as an alternative energy source for the brain and muscles during fasting or prolonged exercise.

ACAA2 has connections to metabolic disorders particularly fatty acid oxidation disorders and diabetes. Deficiency in ACAA2 activity can result in accumulation and impaired degradation of fatty acids leading to metabolic imbalances. This enzyme also interacts with related proteins such as ACADM in the context of these metabolic diseases. Disruptions in ACAA2 function can face links to mitochondrial dysfunctions that contribute to diabetes due to its role in energy production and regulation.

Target data

In the production of energy from fats, this is one of the enzymes that catalyzes the last step of the mitochondrial beta-oxidation pathway, an aerobic process breaking down fatty acids into acetyl-CoA (Probable). Using free coenzyme A/CoA, catalyzes the thiolytic cleavage of medium- to long-chain unbranched 3-oxoacyl-CoAs into acetyl-CoA and a fatty acyl-CoA shortened by two carbon atoms (Probable). Also catalyzes the condensation of two acetyl-CoA molecules into acetoacetyl-CoA and could be involved in the production of ketone bodies (Probable). Also displays hydrolase activity on various fatty acyl-CoAs (PubMed : 25478839). Thereby, could be responsible for the production of acetate in a side reaction to beta-oxidation (Probable). Abolishes BNIP3-mediated apoptosis and mitochondrial damage (PubMed : 18371312).
