Background :

Lipe Antibody: Although initially described as an adipocyte-specific triacylglycerol lipase, Lipe (also known as hormone-specific lipase or HSL) is expressed in multiple tissues and cell lines. It plays multiple roles in lipid metabolism, including hormone-stimulated lipolysis in adipose tissue and the hydrolysis of cholesterol esters. Lipe is expressed as a long and a short form, generated by use of alternative translational start codons. The long form is expressed in steroidogenic tissues such as testis, where it converts cholesterol esters to free cholesterol for steroid hormone production. The short form is expressed in adipose tissue, among others, where it hydrolyzes stored triglycerides to free fatty acids. Recently, it was observed that the lack of Lipe in genetically obese leptin-null mice inhibited obesity and adipogenesis, suggesting that Lipe plays a major role in adipocyte proliferation.

ALTnames :

Lipe Antibody: HSL, LHS, Hormone-sensitive lipase, HSL

Immunogen :

Lipe antibody was raised against a 14 amino acid synthetic peptide from near the carboxy terminus of human Lipe.

Specificity :

Multiple isoforms of Lipe are known to exist.

Purity :

Lipe Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.

Buffer :

Lipe Antibody is supplied in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration :

1 mg/mL

Uses :

E, WB, IHC, IF

Application Summary :

Lipe antibody can be used for detection of Lipe by Western blot at 0.5 - 1 g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 g/mL.

Storage :

Lipe antibody can be stored at 4 C for three months and -20 C, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
