Description
Product Characteristics: For the quantitative determination of human acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH) concentrations in serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell lysates.
Target Information: This locus encodes both the light and heavy subunits of acyloxyacyl hydrolase. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of acyloxylacyl-linked fatty acyl chains from bacterial lipopolysaccharides, effectively detoxifying these molecules. The encoded protein may play a role in modulating host inflammatory response to gram-negative bacteria. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]
