MAOB Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide

Background:
MAOB belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. This protein is a enzyme located in the mitochondrial outer membrane. The protein catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines and plays an important role in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous sysytem and peripheral tissues. The protein preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine.

Other Names:
Amine oxidase [flavin-containing] B, Monoamine oxidase type B, MAO-B, MAOB

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7496a was selected from the N-term region of human MAOB. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
