A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of ARG1 antibody, Alternative Names: Arginase 1 control peptide, Arginase 1 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-Arginase 1 Blocking Peptide, ARG Blocking Peptide, Liver Arginase Blocking Peptide, A I Blocking Peptide, Al Blocking Peptide, ARG 1 Blocking Peptide, ARG1 Blocking Peptide, Arginase 1 Blocking Peptide, Arginase liver Blocking Peptide, Arginase type I Blocking Peptide, Arginase1 Blocking Peptide, Liver type arginase Blocking Peptide, Type I arginase Blocking Peptide
Arginase catalyzes the hydrolysis of arginine to ornithine and urea. The type I isoform of ARG1, is a cytosolic enzyme and expressed predominantly in the liver as a component of the urea cycle. Inherited deficiency of this enzyme results in argininemia, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hyperammonemia.
