IDS Antibody (E-4) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b antibody that detects IDS (Iduronate 2-sulfatase) in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). IDS is a crucial enzyme localized in the lysosome, where IDS plays a vital role in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans, specifically dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate. By catalyzing the hydrolysis of sulfate groups on these substrates, IDS ensures proper turnover of complex carbohydrates, which is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing harmful metabolite accumulation. Deficiencies in IDS activity lead to substrate accumulation, resulting in mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 (MPS2), commonly known as Hunter syndrome, a disorder characterized by severe skeletal deformities, organ enlargement, progressive cardiopulmonary issues, and neurological decline. Anti-IDS antibody (E-4) is particularly valuable for researchers studying MPS2 pathophysiology and lysosomal function, as well as exploring potential therapeutic interventions. Additionally, IDS exists in two alternatively spliced isoforms, long and short, which may have distinct functional implications, making IDS (E-4) antibody an essential tool for further investigations into IDS biology.
