Notes

ab250528 is the carrier-free version of Anti-MDH2 antibody [EPR14883(B)] ab181857.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

MDH2 also known as malate dehydrogenase 2 or mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase is an enzyme with a molecular mass of approximately 35 kDa. This enzyme catalyzes the conversion of malate to oxaloacetate using NAD+ as a cofactor. It is predominantly expressed in the mitochondria where it plays an important role in cellular respiration. The enzyme enables the malate dehydrogenase reaction which is key for the functioning of the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

Biological function summary

MDH2 participates in the critical process of energy production within the cell. While it does not form a complex itself its activity is intimately connected with other enzymes in mitochondrial energy metabolism. The malate dehydrogenase assay often measures the activity of MDH2 to understand the metabolic status of cells. By facilitating the oxidation of malate MDH2 aids in maintaining the efficiency of the mitochondrial electron transport chain by regenerating NADH.

Pathways

The enzyme is essential in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and the malate-aspartate shuttle. In the TCA cycle MDH2 collaborates with enzymes like citrate synthase and isocitrate dehydrogenase to assist in the conversion of acetyl-CoA into energy-rich molecules. The malate-aspartate shuttle on the other hand involves MDH2 working closely with aspartate transaminase to transfer reducing equivalents into the mitochondria. These pathways highlight MDH2’s importance in cellular energy homeostasis.

Associated diseases and disorders

Mutations or dysregulation in MDH2 have connections to certain metabolic conditions and cancers. For example alterations in MDH2 activity might contribute to conditions like mitochondrial myopathy altering energy metabolism. Moreover MDH2 is associated with NADH-producing enzymes whose dysregulation can support oncogenic pathways in cancer. Understanding these associations helps researchers pursue therapeutic targets that modulate MDH2 activity.
