PIPOX Antibody (F-9): sc-166749

PIPOX Antibody (F-9) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects PIPOX in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). PIPOX, or pipecolic acid oxidase, is a 390 amino acid protein that plays a crucial role in the metabolism of various amino acids, including sarcosine, L-pipecolic acid, and L-proline, utilizing FAD as a cofactor for enzymatic activity. PIPOX is primarily localized in the peroxisome, an organelle essential for various metabolic processes, including the breakdown of fatty acids and the detoxification of reactive oxygen species. Proper functioning of PIPOX is vital, as PIPOX contributes to the regulation of metabolic pathways that can influence cellular health and energy balance. Dysregulation of PIPOX has been implicated in metabolic disorders, highlighting PIPOX importance in maintaining metabolic homeostasis. The gene encoding PIPOX is located on human chromosome 17, a region that is also home to critical tumor suppressor genes such as p53 and BRCA1, which are essential for maintaining genomic stability and preventing cancer. Anti-PIPOX antibody (F-9) is an invaluable tool for researchers studying the role of PIPOX in various biological processes and potential implications in disease.
