General notes
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years. Abcam is leading the way in addressing this with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation.

Applications
The Abpromise guarantee
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab10983 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 | (11) |
1/1000. Detects a band of approximately 32 kDa. Use at a minimum dilution of 1/1000 in extract of rat brown adipose tissue (BAT) mitochondria or an extract of E.coli expressing recombinant mouse UCP1. Additional weak bands may be detected in some preparations of BAT extracts. Staining of the UCP1 band is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide. This antibody may not be suitable for Western blot in Human samples.

| IHC-P | (8) |
1/500. This concentration is determined by indirect immunoperoxidase staining of protease digested, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of mouse brown adipose tissue.

Target
-
Function
UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis. As a result, energy is dissipated in the form of heat. -
Tissue specificity
Brown adipose tissue. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family.
Contains 3 Solcar repeats. -
Cellular localization
Mitochondrion inner membrane. - Information by UniProt
