Description: The HGD gene encodes homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase, an enzyme involved in the catabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine. This enzyme is involved in the catabolism of the amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine. Mutations in this gene are the cause of the autosomal recessive metabolism disorder alkaptonuria. This gene is mapped to chromosome 3q21-q23 by a preliminary PCR screen of hamster/human somatic cell hybrid genomic DNA samples and by fluorescence in situ hybridization.
Immunogen: A human partial recombinant protein corresponding to amino acids D374-N445 was used as the immunogen for the HGD antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the HGD antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
