Background | GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase or GAPD) is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway, wherein it catalyzes the first step by converting D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) into 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate. It localizes mainly in the cytoplasm from where it translocates to nucleus following S-nitrosylation and interaction with SIAH1. Nuclear GAPDH implicates in transcription, RNA transport, DNA replication and apoptosis, via its nitrosylase activity which mediates cysteine S-nitrosylation of nuclear target proteins such as SIRT1, HDAC2, PRKDC etc. GAPDH also regulates the organization/assembly of cytoskeleton and facilitates CHP1-dependent microtubule - membrane associations. It is a component of GAIT (gamma interferon-activated inhibitor of translation) complex which mediates IFN-gamma-induced transcript-selective translation inhibition in inflammation. Because of its expression as housekeeping protein in most cell types, GAPDH is often used as a control molecule in various genes expression studies, however, recent evidence has shown the association of its altered expression with neurodegenerative pathologies such as Huntington disease, Alzheimer's disease etc., and elevated GAPDH mRNA/protein expression levels have been seen in pancreatic, lung and prostate cancers. |
Synonyms | G3PD; GAPD; HEL-S-162eP |
Note | This GAPDH antibody is useful for Immunohistochemistry-paraffin, Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence and Western blot applications. In WB, a specific band is observed at ~36 kDa molecular weight position. In Immunohistochemistry, epitope retrieval with citrate buffer pH6.0 is recommended for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections. |
