Uses
Anti-Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) antibody, Mouse monoclonal has been used in:
- immunoblotting
- immunoprecipitation
- dot blotting
- autoradiography
- immunofluorescence
- enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
General Description
Anti-Glutathione-S-transferase (GST) antibody, mouse monoclonal, (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 2H3-D10 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a GST-fusion protein. GST is a Phase II metabolic enzyme, expressed ubiquitously in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. GSTs are classified in to three types based on their cellular localization, namely cytosolic GSTs, mitochondrial GSTs and microsomal GSTs.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) helps to catalyze the conjugation of electrophilic substrates to reduced form of glutathione (GSH). Genetic engineering uses glutathione-S-transferase (from parasitic helminth Schistosoma japonicum) to create the GST gene fusion system for production of GST-labeled recombinant proteins. GST-fusion proteins were successfully demonstrated in structure- function studies involving protein-protein and DNA protein interactions via GST pull down assays.
