Small volumes of anti-CYP11A1 antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

The formation of biologically active steroid hormones is significantly influenced by the motrochondrial cytochrome P450 enzyme, chrolesterol side-chain cleavage. CYP11A1 functions in catalyzing the first step of steroid biosynthesis under modulation of cAMP.It ia also known as cytochrome P450C11A1, cytochrome P450scc and cytochrome P450, subfamily XIA. Expression of CYP11A1 has been a useful tool for monitoring the differentiation state of cells from varius endocrine tissues. Identification of CYP11A1 expression by 13363-1-AP detected a ~45kd band in human placenta, with respect to the reported band at 49-52kd by Roby, et al and Durkee, et al.

CYP11A??[Similar Products]

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the mitochondrial inner membrane and catalyzes the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone, the first and rate-limiting step in the synthesis of the steroid hormones. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The cellular location of the smaller isoform is unclear since it lacks the mitochondrial-targeting transit peptide.

Catalyzes the side-chain cleavage reaction of cholesterol to pregnenolone, the precursor of most steroid hormones.
