Description: Recognizes a protein of about 50kDa, which is identified as gamma-enolase/neuron specific enolase/enolase 2. Three isoenzymes of enolases are identified, alpha, beta and gamma. Alpha-isoform is expressed in most tissues, whereas beta-form is expressed predominantly in muscle tissue and gamma-enolase is found only in nervous tissue. These isoforms exist as both homodimers and heterodimers, and they play a role in converting phosphoglyceric acid to phosphenolpyruvic acid in the glycolytic pathway. NSE is a useful marker to identify peripheral nerves and tumors of neuro-endocrine origins, such as pheochromocytomas. It it be usually employed in combination with other markers such as Synaptophysin, Chromogranin A, and Neurofilament.
Immunogen: Amino acids 416-433 of human Neuron-specific Enolase were used as the immunogen for this NSE antibody.
Storage: Store the NSE antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
