Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PC1/3 antibody (AB191452)
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of PC1/3 using ab191452 in human colon cancer tissues. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution ) for 20 mins. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/mL ab191452 overnight at 4°C. DyLight®488 Conjugated Avidin was used and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The section was counterstained with DAPI. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

Biological function summary
The proprotein convertase enzyme PC1/3 plays a critical role in activating hormone precursors. It is involved in the conversion of proinsulin to insulin as well as the processing of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) to generate peptides like ACTH and beta-endorphin. PC1/3 does not generally form part of a complex but interacts closely with other convertases for complete prohormone processing. This enzyme is essential for maintaining homeostasis in hormone regulation and is an important player in metabolic control.
Pathways
Specific functions of PC1/3 are closely tied to metabolic and neuroendocrine pathways. It is significant in the insulin signaling pathway where its role in converting proinsulin to insulin directly impacts glucose metabolism. Additionally PC1/3 contributes to neuropeptide signaling pathways by processing neuroendocrine peptides which influence appetite and energy homeostasis. PC1/3 works alongside proteins like PC2 another proprotein convertase to ensure comprehensive processing of peptide hormones.
