PISD Antibody (Center) Blocking Peptide

Background:
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylases catalyze the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine (PS). Type I PSDs, such as PISD, are targeted to the inner mitochondrial membrane by an N-terminal targeting sequence. PISD also contains a conserved LGST motif that functions as an autocatalytic cleavage site where the proenzyme is split into mature alpha and beta subunits

Other Names:
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase proenzyme, Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase alpha chain, Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase beta chain, PISD

Target/Specificity:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP8829c was selected from the Center region of human PISD. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
