| Description: | Quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1 and NQO2) are cytosolic proteins that catalyze metabolic redaction of quinines and derivates. NQO2 is inhibited by flavones such as quercetin. Also benzo (a) pyrene is another known inhibitor of NQO2. Even though overlapping substrates specificities have been observed for NQO1 and NQO2, such as for CB1954 activation, significant differences exist in relative affinities for the various substrates. The detoxification role of NQO2 has not been found, and it has no known endogenous biological substrates. However, NQO1 plays an important role in the detoxification of various endogenous and exogenous quinones, including estrogen quinines. Also NQO2 has a melatonin-binding site, which may explain the anti-oxidant role of melatonin related with circadian rhythm. |
| Further Information: | The antibody has been tested by ELISA and Western blot analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot analysis is 1:250 ~ 500. Recommended starting dilution is 1:500 |
