HMGCR Antibody (MA5-32521) in IHC (P)
Immunohistochemistry analysis of HMGCR with paraffin-embedded human small intestine. The tissues were blocked in 1% BSA (20 min, room temp) washed with ddH2O and PBS, incubated with recombinant monoclonal HMGCR (Product # MA5-32521) at a dilution of 1:100 (1 hr, room temperature). Detection was performed with HRP, DAB was used as the chromogen, counterstained with hematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Product Specific Information
Recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies are produced using in vitro expression systems. The expression systems are developed by cloning in the specific antibody DNA sequences from immunoreactive rabbits. Then, individual clones are screened to select the best candidates for production. The advantages of using recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies include: better specificity and sensitivity, lot-to-lot consistency, animal origin-free formulations, and broader immunoreactivity to diverse targets due to larger rabbit immune repertoire.
Target Information
3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-CoA Reductase (HMGCR) is a key enzyme in the mevalonate pathway, which is critical for the biosynthesis of cholesterol and other isoprenoids. HMGCR catalyzes the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a rate-limiting step in the production of cholesterol. Due to its central role in cholesterol synthesis, HMGCR is a primary target for statin drugs, which are used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
