PEDF R (Pigment epithelium derived factor receptor; also ATGL, PNPLA2 and desnutrin) is a 55kD member of the PNPLA family of proteins. It is expressed in adipocytes, hepatocytes, skeletal muscle and pigment epithelium. PEDF R specifically hydrolyses triglycerides, releasing long-chain fatty acids. Mouse PEDF R is described as being a 486aa type II transmembrane \n(TM) protein. Its TM segment is stated to span aa9-29. Alternatively, it may have a hydrophobic lipid-association domain between aa 267-295. It contains a palatin domain (aa10-179) with a conserved GxSxG enzymatic motif. There are multiple splice forms. Two show alternate start sites at Met57 and Met232, while two others show a deletion of aa163-196 and 253-308, \nrespectively. Over aa 62-253, mouse PEDF R shares 98% and 93% aa identity with rat and human PEDF R, respectively. \n \nApplications: \nSuitable for use in ELISA, Immunohistochemistry and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 1.0ug/ml\nImmunohistochemistry: 5-15ug/ml detects PNPLA2 in cells and tissues\nDirect ELISA: 0.5-1.0ug/ml. The detection limit for recombinant mouse and recombinant human PNPLA2 is ~1ng/well\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C. Stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
