Anti-SDHB / Succinate dehydrogenase B

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Succinate Dehydrogenase Complex, Subunit B, iron sulfur protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SDHB gene. It is one of four protein subunits forming succinate dehydrogenase, the other three being SDHA, SDHC and SDHD. The SDHB subunit is connected to the SDHA subunit on the hydrophilic, catalytic end of the SDH complex. The entire SDHB transcript is encoded by 8 exons within approximately 40 kb by Au et al(1995). Pollard et al.(2005) stated that the nuclear-encoded Krebs cycle enzymes fumarate hydratase and succinate dehydrogenases like SDHB act as tumor suppressors, and germline mutations in these genes predispose individuals to leiomyomas and renal cancer and to paragangliomas, respectively. In affected members of families with paragangliomas-4, mutations were identified in the SDHB gene.
