PKLR Antibodies

Santa Cruz Biotechnology supplies a comprehensive collection of PKLR monoclonal antibodies for studying pyruvate kinase, liver and red blood cell isoform (PKLR). PKLR monoclonal antibodies are suitable for multiple research applications, including western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), flow cytometry (FCM), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). PKLR plays a crucial role in glycolysis, catalyzing the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate, which is essential for energy production in cells. PKLR regulation is vital for maintaining metabolic homeostasis, particularly in erythrocytes and liver tissues. Mutations in PKLR can lead to pyruvate kinase deficiency, a rare genetic disorder affecting red blood cells. Understanding PKLR function has significant implications for developing treatments for metabolic disorders and blood diseases. Research has shown that PKLR expression patterns vary across different tissue types, highlighting its tissue-specific roles in metabolism. PKLR activity is carefully regulated through various cellular mechanisms, including allosteric regulation and post-translational modifications. Santa Cruz Biotechnology monoclonal antibodies enable researchers to advance our understanding of PKLR's role in human health and disease, contributing to breakthrough discoveries in metabolic research.
