Assay by Immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against purified and partially purified Alcohol Dehydrogenase [Yeast]. Cross reactivity against Alcohol Dehydrogenase from most fungal sources is likely due to sequence homology as determined by BLAST analysis. Cross reactivity with Alcohol Dehydrogenase from other sources is unknown.
Purification
Delipidation and defibrination.
Immunogen
Full length Alcohol Dehydrogenase isolated from yeast.
ELISA: 1/5,000-1/25,000). Western Blot: 1/500-1/2,000, expect a band approximately 37 kDa in size corresponding tomonomeric alcohol dehdrogenase in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Alcohol dehydrogenase is an isozyme that preferentially catalyzes the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetone. Alcohol dehydrogenase has an apparent molecular weight of 37 kDa (monomer subunit) and forms a homotetramer. This enzyme acts on a variety of primary unbranched aliphatic alcohols and requires 2 bound zinc ions per subunit. Alcohol dehydrogenase shows a cytoplasmic localization. Microheterogeneities may also occur at positions 137, 138, 242-244, and 255 and near position 287.Synonyms: ADC1, ADH1, Alcohol dehydrogenase I, O0947, YADH-1, YOL086C
