Anti-Nitrotyrosine Antibody [6B2-3G2] (A279468)

Anti-Nitrotyrosine Antibody [6B2-3G2]

Mouse monoclonal [6B2-3G2] antibody to Nitrotyrosine.

This antibody recognises both free and protein-bound nitrotyrosine (Tyr-NO2), including human serum nitro albumin, nitro insulin and nitro haemoglobin. The specificity as determined by competition ELISA is: Nitrotyrosine: 95 % of inhibition, Tyrosine: 0 % of inhibition, Nitrotryptophan: 4 % of inhibition, Aminotyrosine: 0 % of inhibition, Phosphotyrosine: 2 % of inhibition, Chlorotyrosine: 3 % of inhibition.

Nitrotyrosine arises from the nitration of protein tyrosine residues, by reactive nitrogen species such as peroxynitrite and nitrogen dioxide, and can be used as a measure of NO-dependent oxidative stress and cell damage. Increased levels of nitrotyrosine are detectable in various pathological conditions including atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory bowel disease and cystic fibrosis.
