- Product Overview:
Nitrotyrosine is a post-translational modification that is formed by the nitration of tyrosine.{60009} It exists in a free or protein-bound form and is commonly used as a marker of nitrosative or oxidative stress.{31710} Nitrotyrosine residues have been found in a variety of proteins, including LDL, surfactant protein A, angiotensin II, and human and bovine serum albumin.{60010} Nitrotyrosine levels are increased in the affected tissues of numerous pathological conditions, including atherosclerosis, cancer, ulcerative colitis, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease.{60010} Autoantibodies that recognize nitrotyrosinated proteins are increased in the synovium of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and are positively correlated with joint and tendon inflammation.{60009} Cayman’s Nitrotyrosine Affinity Sorbent is designed for immunoprecipitation (IP) of nitrated proteins from biological samples. The nitrotyrosine affinity sorbent consists of Cayman’s Nitrotyrosine Monoclonal Antibody (Item No. 189542) coupled to protein A agarose. This is an effective way to concentrate nitrated proteins for subsequent detection by a different anti-nitrotyrosine antibody by Western blot (WB).
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
