This antibody has specificity for Escherichia coli acnB.

Target Information

acnB is involved in the catabolism of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) via the tricarboxylic acid (TCA)(acetyl degradation route) and the 2-methylcitrate cycle I (propionate degradation route). It catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate. Also catalyzes the hydration of 2-methyl-cis-aconitate to yield (2R,3S)-2-methylisocitrate. The apo form of AcnB functions as a RNA-binding regulatory protein. During oxidative stress inactive AcnB apo-enzyme without iron sulfur clusters binds the acnB mRNA 3` UTRs (untranslated regions), stabilizes acnB mRNA and increases AcnB synthesis, thus mediating a post-transcriptional positive autoregulatory switch. AcnB also decreases the stability of the sodA transcript.
