UCP1 gene encodes a unique mammalian mitochondrial proton carrier that induces heat production in brown adipose tissue by uncoupling respiration from ATP synthesis. Despite its tissue specificity, UCP1 is a member of the mitochondrial carrier protein family, which includes the ATP/ADP translocator, the phosphate, the 2-oxoglutarate/malate and the citrate (tricarboxylate) carriers. Like other mitochondrial carriers, UCP1 is inserted into the inner mitochondrial membrane by means of six alpha-helical hydrophobic domains, each encoded by one of the six exons. In humans, polymorphism in UCP1 gene has been associated with a number of measures of glucose homeostasis and adiposity. Mouse UCP1 gene is located in the chromosomal region 8 38.0 cM. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:100-1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
