Diagnostic Biosystems ANTI-ISOCITRATE DEHYDROGENENAS Anti-Isocitrate Dehydrogenenase 1 (IDH1)-R132S
Supplier: Diagnostic Biosystems PDM582R
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) is a 46 kDa NADP-dependent enzyme, which catalyzes the decarboxylation of isocitrate into α-ketoglutarate. IDH1 may also play a role in the prevention of oxidative damage, and the shuttling of proteins to peroxisomes. It is widely reported that mutations in IDH1 result in multiple forms of gliomas. The Arginine to Serine substitution at amino acid 132 is seen in gliomas, abolishes magnesium binding and alters enzyme activity so that isocitrate is no longer converted to alphaketoglutarate but instead alpha-ketoglutarate is converted to R(-)-2- hydroxyglutarate.
