  • Description
    Uncoupling Protein 1, also called Thermogenin or UCP, is an uncoupling protein found in the mitochondria of brown adipose tissue(BAT). Using in situ hybridization, Cassard et al.(1990) assigned the human UCP gene to 4q31. They found that the primary structure of UCP is similar to that of ADP/ATP translocator of skeletal muscle, the gene for which is also located on chromosome 4. The failure of UCP1 expressed in E. coli inclusion bodies to carry out fatty acid-dependent H+ transport activity inclusion bodies made Echtay et al.(2000) seek a native UCP cofactor. They identified coenzyme Q(CoQ, or ubiquinone) as such a cofactor. On addition of CoQ(10) to reconstituted UCP1 from inclusion bodies, fatty acid-dependent proton transport reached the same rate as with native UCP1.
  • Immunogen
    An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of mouse Uncoupling Protein 1 (FEQLKKELMKSRQTVDCTT) was used as the immunogen for this UCP1 antibody (100% rat homology).
  • Storage
    After reconstitution, the UCP1 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 deg. Celcius or lower. Cycles of freezing and thawing can denaturate the peptide chains of the antibodies and reduce their sensitivity and/or change their affinity. Prepare aliqotes in such a manner so that freeze-thaw cycles are minimized. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
  • Properties
    If you buy Antibodies supplied by NJS poly they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
