Background

Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) is a novel protein and a member of the non-heme dioxygenase (Fe(II)- and 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases) superfamily. Though not much is yet known about FTO, it is thought that the protein may somehow modify the activity of genes involved in metabolism and fat storage, which in turn may influence a person's risk of obesity.

FTO antibodies are useful tools for lipid metabolism research and obesity studies.

FAQs for FTO Recombinant Protein (H00079068-P01). (Showing 1 - 1 of 1 FAQ).

1. Do you have any antibodies against FTO, where you can indicate the sequence of the immunogen?
   • With regards to other FTO antibodies that we do list the peptide sequence for, the immunogen sequence for catalog number NB110-60935 can be found in the range of amino acids 400-505. Many of the exact immunogen sequences used for our products are proprietary and cannot be disclosed. In these instances we try to provide a reasonable amino acid range to help in your decision.
