Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody [EP1532Y] – Mouse IgG1 (Chimeric) – BSA and Azide Free (AB317796)

Immunofluorescence staining of Tyrosine Hydroxylase in sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded rat brain (positive) and rat liver (negative). Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate (pH6.0) for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab317796 at 1/500 dilution, and then incubated for 1 hour with ab150119 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 647) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®. Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8). For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

Product details

ab317796 is the carrier-free version of ab317786.

This mouse monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (ab137869). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
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.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. 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.

Compatibility
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.

Supplementary information

Tyrosine hydroxylase also known as TH is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA. It weighs approximately 60 kDa. You can find this enzyme expressed mainly in the brain adrenal glands and some peripheral tissues. Commonly studied antibodies include anti-tyrosine hydroxylase or anti-TH. It plays a significant role in the catecholamine biosynthesis pathway serving as the rate-limiting step in dopamine synthesis.
Biological function summary

Tyrosine hydroxylase is essential for synthesizing catecholamines including dopamine norepinephrine and epinephrine. This enzyme associates with other components in the catecholamine biosynthetic pathway. It functions as part of a larger complex within certain cells where its action determines levels of important neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters help regulate numerous central and peripheral nervous system activities.

Pathways

Tyrosine hydroxylase acts as a critical component in both the dopaminergic and adrenergic pathways. In the dopaminergic pathway tyrosine hydroxylase facilitates dopamine production influencing various physiological processes. The enzyme also correlates with ardrd protein in these pathways allowing fine-tuned control of neurotransmitter synthesis. Proteins related to tyrosine hydroxylase in these pathways include aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase which further processes L-DOPA into dopamine.

Tyrosine hydroxylase has connections with neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease and conditions such as dystonia. Dysfunctional expression or activity of this enzyme can lead to dopamine deficiency contributing to the motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease. In dystonia alterations in tyrosine hydroxylase activity affect neurotransmitter balance influencing muscle coordination. The relationship with ardrd protein highlights tyrosine hydroxylase's role in maintaining neural health and it highlights potential areas for therapeutic intervention.

Target data

Catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa), the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of catecholamines, dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. Uses tetrahydrobiopterin and molecular oxygen to convert tyrosine to L-Dopa (By similarity). In addition to tyrosine, is able to catalyze the hydroxylation of phenylalanine and tryptophan but with lower specificity (PubMed : 10933781, PubMed : 11922614). Positively regulates the regression of retinal hyaloid vessels during postnatal development (By similarity).
