Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-ETFB antibody (AB73986)

IHC image of ab73986 staining in human liver formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab73986, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

ETFB also known as electron transfer flavoprotein subunit beta is a protein that plays an important role in transferring electrons in cellular energy metabolism. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 27 kDa and is mainly expressed in mitochondria-rich organs such as the liver heart and muscle tissues. This protein pairs with the alpha subunit (ETFA) to form the heterodimeric structure of the electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) essential for its function. ETFB's presence is significant in tissues with high metabolic demand aligning with its involvement in energy production processes.
Biological function summary

The ETFB protein partners with ETFA to form the complete ETF complex which serves as an important electron transporter in the mitochondria. It accepts electrons from various flavoprotein dehydrogenases and transfers them to the mitochondrial respiratory chain. This process is important for beta-oxidation of fatty acids and catabolism of some amino acids. ETFB ensures proper energy production and cellular respiration and its deficiency can lead to severe metabolic disruptions.

Pathways

Several important biological pathways involve ETFB most notably the fatty acid oxidation pathway and the branched-chain amino acid catabolism. It interacts closely with proteins such as the ACADs (acyl-CoA dehydrogenases) which directly send electrons to ETF in the mitochondria. This interaction allows ETFB to maintain efficient energy conversion processes directly linking its function to metabolic activity and energy homeostasis.

ETFB's dysfunction associates with metabolic disorders like glutaric aciduria type II (GA II) and multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD). These conditions stem from defects in the electron transport function of the ETF complex leading to energy production impairment. Patients with these disorders may have symptoms ranging from mild to severe metabolic crises. ETFB's disturbance in this context often involves ETFA as both proteins form the ETF complex important for normal metabolic function.

Target data

Heterodimeric electron transfer flavoprotein that accepts electrons from several mitochondrial dehydrogenases, including acyl-CoA dehydrogenases, glutaryl-CoA and sarcosine dehydrogenase (PubMed : 15159392, PubMed : 15975918, PubMed : 25416781). It transfers the electrons to the main mitochondrial respiratory chain via ETF-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Probable). Required for normal mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and normal amino acid metabolism (PubMed : 12815589, PubMed : 7912128). ETFB binds an AMP molecule that probably has a purely structural role (PubMed : 15159392, PubMed : 15975918, PubMed : 8962055).
