Anti-ACAA2

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. 3-Ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, mitochondrial, also known as acetyl-Coenzyme A acyltransferase 2, is an acetyl-CoA C-acyltransferase enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ACAA2 gene. The ACAA2 gene encodes a 41.9 kDa protein that is composed of 397 amino acids and contains 88 observed peptides. The encoded protein catalyzes the last step of themitochondrial fatty acid beta oxidation spiral. Unlike most mitochondrial matrix proteins, it contains a non-cleavable amino-terminal targeting signal. Additionally, ACAA2 has been shown to be a functional BNIP3 binding partner, which provides a possible link between fatty acid metabolism and cell apoptosis. Protein function: Abolishes BNIP3-mediated apoptosis and mitochondrial damage. [The UniProt Consortium]
