PTPS Antibody (D-8) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects PTPS protein of mouse, rat, and human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). PTPS (D-8) 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. PTPS protein plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), a vital cofactor necessary for the activity of several hydroxylases involved in the degradation of phenylalanine and the synthesis of neurotransmitters such as catecholamines and serotonin. BH4 is also essential for nitric oxide synthase, and deficiency can lead to serious metabolic disorders, including hyperphenylalaninemia and depletion of monoamine neurotransmitters, often resulting from mutations in the PTPS gene. PTPS structure is particularly important, as the active site features a pterin-anchoring glutamic acid residue (Glu A107) alongside a zinc-binding site and a catalytic triad composed of cysteine, aspartate, and histidine residues. This configuration facilitates a series of critical reactions, including triphosphate elimination and stereospecific reductions, which are essential for enzyme function. Additionally, post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation of Ser 19 by cGMP-dependent protein kinase type II, are vital for maintaining normal PTPS activity, highlighting the intricate regulation of this enzyme in physiological processes.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from No visible bandsI used this antibody for western blotting. My samples are mouse spinal cord and primary neuron lysates. No visible bands were detected around 17 kDa. But the antibody was incubated after once stripping. So further verifications are needed.
