Description

General description

Peroxinitrite (ONOO-), a potent oxidant linked to cellular oxidative damage, is an important member of the family of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, rapidly generated in vivo from nitric oxide and superoxide anion. Nitrotyrosine is a product of tyrosine nitration, that is facilitated by reactive nitrogen species.

Immunogen

nitrated KLH (Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin).

Application

Anti-Nitrotyrosine antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

• immunoblotting
• enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
• immunohistochemistry
• immunofluorescence immunocytochemistry
• confocal microscopy
• immunofluorescent staining

Biochem/physiol Actions

Anti-Nitrotyrosine recognizes nitrated proteins and 3-nitro-L-tyrosine. It does not cross-react with L-tyrosine, ρ-nitro-L-phenylalanine, 3-amino-L-tyrosine, 3-chloro-L-tyrosine and phospho-L-tyrosine BSA conjugates.

Peroxynitrite has been shown to promote the nitration of tyrosine residues in proteins, and oxidation of redox metal centers, DNA, lipids and cysteine and methionine residues in proteins, suggesting that it plays a major role in oxidative cellular damage. Peroxynitrite has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory, infectious and degenerative human disease, including neurological conditions such as Alzheimer′s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), in the pathogenesis of asthma, atherosclerosis and a variety of conditions precipitated by endothelial injury.

Reacts with peroxynitrite-nitrated proteins and 3-nitro-L-tyrosine. Does not crossreact with L-tyrosine, p-nitro-L-phenylalanine, 3-amino-L-tyrosine, 3-chloro-L-tyrosine, and phospho-L-tyrosine. Binding of the antibody is blocked by 3-nitrotyrosine.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide.

Preparation Note

Purified by affinity chromatography on a column of 3-nitro-L-tyrosine.
