Description

CYP27A1 (Cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1) is a mitochondrial enzyme belonging to the cytochrome P450 superfamily. It plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism and bile acid biosynthesis. CYP27A1 catalyzes the hydroxylation of cholesterol and sterol intermediates, providing substrates for the classical and alternative bile acid synthesis pathways. A CYP27A1 antibody is frequently used to study cholesterol regulation, lipid homeostasis, and sterol metabolism.

This enzyme is expressed in many tissues, with the highest levels found in the liver and macrophages. Its activity contributes to the maintenance of cholesterol balance and also generates oxysterols, which act as ligands for nuclear receptors such as liver X receptor (LXR). These signaling pathways influence lipid transport, storage, and gene expression. Employing a CYP27A1 antibody allows researchers to monitor protein distribution and activity in tissues involved in cholesterol processing and immune function.

Mutations in the CYP27A1 gene cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX), a rare metabolic disorder characterized by impaired bile acid synthesis, accumulation of cholesterol and cholestanol, and progressive neurological dysfunction. Understanding CYP27A1 function is therefore clinically relevant for rare disease research as well as for broader studies of lipid metabolism. Using a CYP27A1 antibody enables detailed analysis of its role in disease mechanisms, cholesterol trafficking, and therapeutic interventions.

NSJ Bioreagents provides a high-quality CYP27A1 antibody validated for applications including western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. Choosing a CYP27A1 antibody from NSJ Bioreagents ensures reliable detection and reproducible results in studies of cholesterol metabolism and bile acid biosynthesis.

Application Notes

Optimal dilution of the CYP27A1 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

Immunogen

Recombinant human protein (amino acids A7-C531) was used as the immunogen for the CYP27A1 antibody.

Storage

After reconstitution, the CYP27A1 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
