If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
Applications Tested/Suitable for anti-Agxt antibody
Peptide ELISA (EIA)
Application Notes for anti-Agxt antibody
Peptide ELISA: Antibody detection limit dilution 1: 8000.
Western Blot: Preliminary experiments gave an approx.22kDa band in Mouse and Rat Liver lysates after 0.1ug/ml antibody staining. Please note that currently we cannot find an explanation in the literature for the band we observe given the calculated size of 43.4kDa according to Rat NP_085914.1. The 22kDa band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide.

NCBI Summary for Agxt
This gene encodes alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, which catalyzes the interconversion of L-alanine and glyoxylate to pyruvate and glycine. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. The longer transcript variant includes an upstream translation start codon and a downstream translation start codon. The upstream start codon initiates the translation of the mitochondrial enzyme precursor while the downstream start codon initiates the translation of the peroxisomal enzyme (see PMID:2332438).

UniProt Comments for Agxt
AGXT: Defects in AGXT are the cause of hyperoxaluria primary type 1 (HP1); also known as primary hyperoxaluria type I (PH1) and oxalosis I. HP1 is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of glyoxylate metabolism characterized by increased excretion of oxalate and glycolate, and the progressive accumulation of insoluble calcium oxalate in the kidney and urinary tract. Belongs to the class-V pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase family.
