Product Specific Information

PA1-055 detects uncoupling protein-3 (UCP-3) mouse, rat, and canine tissues. This antibody will also detect recombinant human UCP-3, but does not detect UCP-3 from mouse liver or kidney.

PA1-055 has been successfully used in Western blot procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects an ~30 kDa protein representing UCP-3 from rat heart homogenate.

The PA1-055 immunogen is a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues C R(295) A L M K V Q V L R E S P F(308) of mouse and rat UPC-3. This peptide differs from the porcine and human UCP-3 sequence by a single amino acid substitution. PA1-055 immunizing peptide (Cat. # PEP-074) is available for use in neutralization and control experiments.

Target Information

The uncoupling protein UCP1 (formerly designated UCP) is an integral membrane protein unique to brown adipose tissue mitochondria. UCP1 forms a dimer that acts as a proton channel, which can uncouple oxidative phosphorylation by dissipating the electrochemical potential across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This process induces heat production in brown adipose tissue and is involved in regulation of body temperature and glucose metabolism. UCP2 is a structurally related protein that also uncouples mitochondrial respiration. It is more widely expressed in human and mouse tissues, including white adipose tissue and muscle, than is UCP1. UCP2 is thought to play a role in body weight regulation. An additional UCP family member, UCP3, is highly muscle specific and is possibly involved in the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in skeletal muscle.
