StAR Antibody

Western Blot: StAR Antibody [NBP1-33485] - Non-transfected (-) and transfected (+) 293T whole cell extracts (30 ug) were separated by 12% SDS-PAGE, and the membrane was blotted with StAR antibody diluted at 1:5000. The HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG antibody (NBP2-19301) was used to detect the primary antibody

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: StAR Antibody [NBP1-33485] - HepG2 cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at RT for 15 min. Green: StAR protein stained by StAR antibody diluted at 1:500. Blue: Hoechst 33342 staining.

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: StAR Antibody [NBP1-33485] - Human hepatoma. StAR antibody dilution: 1:500. Antigen Retrieval: Trilogy™ (EDTA based, pH 8.0) buffer, 15min

Western Blot: StAR Antibody [NBP1-33485] - Whole cell extract (30 ug) was separated by 12% SDS-PAGE, and the membrane was blotted with StAR antibody diluted at 1:1000. The HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG antibody (NBP2-19301) was used to detect the primary antibody.

Western Blot: StAR Antibody [NBP1-33485] - Mouse tissue extract (50 ug) was separated by 12% SDS-PAGE, and the membrane was blotted with StAR antibody diluted at 1:500. The HRP-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG antibody (NBP2-19301) was used to detect the primary antibody, and the signal was developed with Trident ECL plus-Enhanced.

Background

The protein encoded by this gene plays a key role in the acute regulation of steroid hormone synthesis by enhancing the conversion of cholesterol into pregnenolone. This protein permits the cleavage of cholesterol into pregnenolone by mediating the transport of cholesterol from the outer mitochondrial membrane to the inner mitochondrial membrane. Mutations in this gene are a cause of congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (CLAH), also called lipoid CAH. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 13.
