Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PCCB antibody (AB70416)

IHC image of ab70416 staining in normal human kidney 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 ab70416, 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.

Supplementary information

PCCB also known as Propionyl-CoA Carboxylase β subunit is an enzyme component that plays an important role in metabolizing certain amino acids and odd-chain fatty acids. This protein partners with the alpha subunit to form a dimeric enzyme with a total mass of approximately 750 kDa. PCCB is mainly expressed in the liver but its expression also occurs in other tissues such as the kidney and heart where energy and metabolism play key roles.
Biological function summary

Propionyl-CoA Carboxylase β subunit takes part in the process of carboxylation of propionyl-CoA to methylmalonyl-CoA an essential step in catabolism. This subunit contributes to the function of the complex necessary for efficient energy production and proper detoxification of specific intermediary products. In this enzymatic action it works jointly with the alpha subunit that harbors the biotin-binding sites important for transferring carbon dioxide.

Pathways

PCCB is an important component in the propionic acid pathway and is critical for maintaining the balance in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis. Its function plays a central role in the catabolism of certain amino acids including valine isoleucine and methionine as well as odd-chain fatty acids. Propionyl-CoA Carboxylase β subunit’s action works closely with methylmalonyl-CoA mutase assisting in metabolic conversion that takes place after the initial carboxylation step.

Deficiencies or mutations in PCCB are linked to propionic acidemia a metabolic disorder that interrupts normal propionic acid breakdown leading to an accumulation that is toxic to the body. This deficiency relates it to methylmalonic acidemia if methylmalonyl-CoA mutase is affected often causing similar clinical symptoms such as developmental delays vomiting and metabolic crises. Understanding the function and pathways of PCCB helps to develop targeted therapies that address its metabolic roles and its involvement in these disorders.

Target data

This is one of the 2 subunits of the biotin-dependent propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCC), a mitochondrial enzyme involved in the catabolism of odd chain fatty acids, branched-chain amino acids isoleucine, threonine, methionine, and valine and other metabolites (PubMed : 15890657, PubMed : 6765947). Propionyl-CoA carboxylase catalyzes the carboxylation of propionyl-CoA/propanoyl-CoA to D-methylmalonyl-CoA/(S)-methylmalonyl-CoA (PubMed : 15890657, PubMed : 6765947). Within the holoenzyme, the alpha subunit catalyzes the ATP-dependent carboxylation of the biotin carried by the biotin carboxyl carrier (BCC) domain, while the beta subunit then transfers the carboxyl group from carboxylated biotin to propionyl-CoA (By similarity). Propionyl-CoA carboxylase also significantly acts on butyryl-CoA/butanoyl-CoA, which is converted to ethylmalonyl-CoA/(2S)-ethylmalonyl-CoA at a much lower rate (PubMed : 6765947). Other alternative minor substrates include (2E)-butenoyl-CoA/crotonoyl-CoA (By similarity).
