ELOVL7 Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
ELOVL7 antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid synthetic peptide near the amino terminus of human ELOVL7. The immunogen is located within amino acids 40 - 90 of ELOVL7.
ELOVL7 antibody can be used for detection of ELOVL7 by Western blot at 1 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 5 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunohistochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

ELOVL7 Antibody: Lipogenesis is a key event in the energy storage system and is controlled by the transcription factor sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP)-1. Elongation of very long chain fatty acids protein 7 (ELOVL7) is a member of fatty acyl-CoA elongase gene family that elongates saturated very-long-chain fatty acids (SVLFA, C20:0-) and has been suggested to be involved in prostate cancer growth through saturated long-chain fatty acid metabolism. The metabolic pathways of long-chain fatty acids play an important role in the maintenance of membrane lipid composition and the generation of cell signaling precursor molecules such as eicosanoids and sphingosine-1 phosphate. Overexpression of ELOVL7 results in lipid accumulation in differentiated adipocytes, its expression is regulated by the microRNA miR-219.
