A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of GCDH antibody, Alternative Names: GCDH control peptide, GCDH antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-GCDH Blocking Peptide, Glutaryl-Coenzyme A Dehydrogenase Blocking Peptide, ACAD5 Blocking Peptide, GCD Blocking Peptide
GCDH belongs to the acyl-CoA dehydrogenase family. It catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of glutaryl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA and CO(2) in the degradative pathway of L-lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan metabolism. It uses electron transfer flavoprotein as its electron acceptor. The enzyme exists in the mitochondrial matrix as a homotetramer of 45 kDa subunits.
