Anti-IDH2 (R172K)

Constituents: PBS (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 50% glycerol. Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to 2-oxoglutarate. The isocitrate and isopropylmalate dehydrogenases family has three members, IDH1, IDH2 and IDH3. IDH2 plays a role in intermediary metabolism and energy production. Defects in IDH2 are the cause of D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria type 2 (D2HGA2). Somatic mosaic mutations of this protein have also been found associated to Ollier disease and Maffucci syndrome, and R172K IDH2 mutations do exist in diffusely infiltrative gliomas. Protein function: Plays a role in intermediary metabolism and energy production. It may tightly associate or interact with the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. [The UniProt Consortium]
