Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab133657 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Application	Abreviews	Notes
WB		1/10000 - 1/50000. Detects a band of approximately 30 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 32 kDa).
IHC-P		1/250 - 1/500. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Application notes

Is unsuitable for IP.

Function

Plays a key role in steroid hormone synthesis by enhancing the metabolism of cholesterol into pregnenolone. Mediates the transfer of cholesterol from the outer mitochondrial membrane to the inner mitochondrial membrane where it is cleaved to pregnenolone.
Tissue specificity

Expressed in gonads, adrenal cortex and kidney.
Pathway

Steroid metabolism; cholesterol metabolism.
Involvement in disease

Defects in STAR are the cause of adrenal hyperplasia type 1 (AH1) [MIM:201710]. The most severe form of adrenal hyperplasia. It is a condition characterized by onset of profound adrenocortical insufficiency shortly after birth, hyperpigmentation reflecting increased production of pro-opiomelanocortin, elevated plasma renin activity as a consequence of reduced aldosterone synthesis, and male pseudohermaphroditism resulting from deficient fetal testicular testosterone synthesis. Affected individuals are phenotypic females irrespective of gonadal sex, and frequently die in infancy if mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid replacement are not instituted.
Sequence similarities

Contains 1 START domain.
Cellular localization

Mitochondrion.
