Immunogen: Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) [Pig Heart]
Physical State: Lyophilized
Purity and Specificity: This product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by a delipidation and defibrination. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-sheep serum, purified and partially purified Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) [Pig Heart]. Cross reactivity against Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) from other tissues and species may occur but have not been specifically determined.
Background: Aspartate aminotransferase is involved in the biosynthesis of L-glutamate from L-aspartate or L-cysteine. It is an important regulator of the levels of glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the vertebrate central nervous system. It acts as a scavenger of glutamate in brain neuroprotection. The aspartate aminotransferase activity is involved in hepatic glucose synthesis during development and in adipocyte glyceroneogenesis. Using L-cysteine as substrate, Aspartate aminotransferase regulates levels of mercaptopyruvate, an important source of hydrogen sulfide, then mercaptopyruvate is converted into H2S via the action of 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST). Hydrogen sulfide is an important synaptic modulator and neuroprotectant in the brain. In eukaryotes there are cytoplasmic, mitochondrial, and chloroplastic isozymes.
