PNLIPRP3 antibody detects Pancreatic lipase-related protein 3, encoded by the PNLIPRP3 gene on chromosome 10q25.3. PNLIPRP3 antibody is used to study this lipase family member, which shares structural similarity with pancreatic triglyceride lipase but has distinct tissue expression and activity. While classical pancreatic lipase (PNLIP) is secreted into the digestive tract to hydrolyze dietary fats, PNLIPRP3 appears to play specialized roles in lipid metabolism and homeostasis. Expression studies indicate enrichment in pancreatic tissue and potential expression in other gastrointestinal organs.
Structurally, PNLIPRP3 shares the canonical lipase alpha/beta hydrolase fold with a catalytic triad composed of serine, histidine, and aspartate. Like other lipase family proteins, it contains a lid domain that controls substrate access to the catalytic site. However, PNLIPRP3 exhibits differences in substrate specificity compared to PNLIP, possibly reflecting adaptation to non-dietary lipid substrates. It may act as a regulatory or modulating enzyme within pancreatic exocrine secretions.
Functionally, PNLIPRP3 has not been fully characterized, but it is believed to contribute to lipid digestion or modification. Some studies suggest it may regulate availability of lipids important for signaling pathways or metabolic balance. Given its expression in the pancreas, PNLIPRP3 may serve as a backup or auxiliary enzyme supporting triglyceride hydrolysis. Researchers apply PNLIPRP3 antibody to investigate its expression patterns, biochemical properties, and potential regulatory roles in lipid metabolism.
Clinically, PNLIPRP3's contribution to disease remains largely unexplored. Altered expression of lipase family members is associated with pancreatic disorders, metabolic syndrome, and digestive diseases, and PNLIPRP3 may be implicated in similar contexts. Genome analyses have identified variation in the PNLIPRP3 locus, but functional consequences remain unclear. Understanding PNLIPRP3 could reveal new insights into pancreatic enzyme biology and lipid regulation. NSJ Bioreagents offers PNLIPRP3 antibody to support ongoing research into lipase biology, pancreas physiology, and metabolism.
Experimentally, PNLIPRP3 antibody is used in western blotting to detect its ~52-70 kDa protein, in immunohistochemistry to study pancreatic tissue expression, and in ELISA assays to measure protein levels. Immunoprecipitation with PNLIPRP3 antibody helps characterize binding partners and enzyme complexes. These approaches enable researchers to dissect the role of this poorly understood lipase-related protein.
Optimal dilution of the PNLIPRP3 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
E.coli-derived human PNLIPRP3 recombinant protein (Position: H218-C467) was used as the immunogen for the PNLIPRP3 antibody.
After reconstitution, the PNLIPRP3 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
