Lanes 1 - 2 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab126751 observed at 60 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 38 kDa.

ab126751 was shown to recognize Monoamine Oxidase A in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in MAOA (Monoamine Oxidase A) knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and MAOA (Monoamine Oxidase A) knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab126751 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

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

Monoamine Oxidase A (MAO-A) also known as MAO protein is an enzyme that degrades neurotransmitters through oxidative deamination. It possesses a mass of approximately 59 kDa. This enzyme is found localized in the outer mitochondrial membrane of cells specifically in high concentrations in the brain liver and intestine. MAO-A plays an important role in the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters such as serotonin norepinephrine and dopamine which are critical for normal brain function.
Biological function summary

MAO-A acts to maintain proper neurotransmitter levels by catalyzing the oxidative deamination of monoamines. It is not part of a larger protein complex but functions independently to influence monoamine balance. Through its enzymatic activity MAO-A regulates several physiological processes including mood and emotional responses by controlling neurotransmitter availability and preventing their accumulation to neurotoxic levels.

Pathways

MAO-A operates within the catabolic pathways that reduce the bioavailability of monoamines. It pairs with proteins like Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) in the metabolic degradation of catecholamines. This pathway is integral to managing the equilibrium of mood-related neurotransmitters and involves complex interactions with other enzymatic systems including MAO-B which targets different substrates.

MAO-A is closely associated with psychiatric conditions such as depression and anxiety. Altered MAO-A activity can dysregulate monoamine levels contributing to these disorders. Additionally research links MAO-A dysregulation to neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease where imbalances in monoamine levels play a role. This enzyme interacts with proteins involved in early stages of these diseases highlighting its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions using MAO inhibitors.

Target data

Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary and some secondary amine such as neurotransmitters, with concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide and has important functions in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues (PubMed : 18391214, PubMed : 20493079, PubMed : 24169519, PubMed : 8316221). Preferentially oxidizes serotonin (PubMed : 20493079, PubMed : 24169519). Also catalyzes the oxidative deamination of kynuramine to 3-(2-aminophenyl)-3-oxopropanal that can spontaneously condense to 4-hydroxyquinoline (By similarity).
