anti-Nitrotryptophan (NW), mAb (117C)

Product description: Monoclonal Antibody. Recognizes 6-Nitrotryptophan. Lyophilized. Contains 10mM PBS (pH 7.4). Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are formed in a variety of diseases such as atherosclerosis, inflammation, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxinitrite (ONOO-) is known as a potent biological oxidant, which is formed via very fast reaction between nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide (O2-). Peroxinitrite can induce nitration of aromatic amino acids such as Tyr, Trp, Phe and His, which results in modulation of protein functions. To date, 6-nitrotryptophan (6-NO2-Trp) is shown to be one of the most stable and major peroxynitrite-modified amino acids, and growing evidences suggest that nitrotryptophan may play a significant role in the cellular regulation under nitrosative stress. This antibody is suitable for immunohistochemistry, western blotting and ELISA and may provide a powerful tool for the investigation of nitrosative stress inside living bodies.
