AKR1A1 Antibody (3B08) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects AKR1A1 in mouse, rat, and human samples through various applications including western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). AKR1A1, also known as aldo-keto reductase family 1 member A1, aldehyde reductase, dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 3, or alcohol dehydrogenase, is a crucial enzyme within the aldo-keto reductase family, which consists of soluble NADPH-dependent oxidoreductases that are vital for the metabolism of drugs, carcinogens, and reactive aldehydes. AKR1A1 primarily functions as a monomer, catalyzing the reduction of both xenobiotic and biogenic aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols, with a particular efficiency for medium-chain and aromatic aldehydes. AKR1A1 contributes to the biosynthetic pathways of cholesterol and triglycerides, while also participating in the activation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which are known to be environmental pollutants with potential carcinogenic effects. By facilitating the detoxification of harmful compounds, AKR1A1 plays an essential role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and protecting against oxidative stress, making AKR1A1 a critical target for research in pharmacology and toxicology.
