SEE ALSO...

MCT2 Antibody (D-5) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b kappa light chain antibody that detects MCT2 protein of mouse origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). MCT2 (D-5) antibody is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. MCT2, also known as SLC16A7, is a member of the monocarboxylate transporter family, which plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism by facilitating the transport of monocarboxylates such as lactate and pyruvate across cell membranes. This transport is vital for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis, particularly during periods of high glycolytic activity, as MCT2 allows for the removal of lactic acid, which can accumulate and lead to decreased intracellular pH, ultimately inhibiting glycolysis. MCT2 is predominantly expressed in the liver and testis, where MCT2 contributes to the regulation of metabolic processes and the transport of metabolites necessary for energy production and cellular function. Understanding MCT2′s role in these tissues is essential for elucidating MCT2′s involvement in metabolic disorders and potential therapeutic targets.

Asked by: GTPA
Thank you for your question. We do not offer a blocking peptide corresponding to this particular antibody. If you are looking for a negative control, we do offer siRNA and CRISPR products for knockdown/knockout in either murine or human cells.

Is this antibody suitable for immunofluorescence on frozen brain slices?

Asked by: RobertaT84
Thank you for your question. This antibody is recommended for IF, or immunofluorescence on fresh or frozen tissues or cells fixed in acetone or methanol. We do not yet have published data on frozen brain tissue, but we would still warranty the antibody for that application. We do have published data in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections of mouse kidney, testes and stomach.
