Background Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (GAPDH, G3PDH or GPDH) is one of the key enzymes involved in glycolysis; it catalyzes the reversible oxidative phosphorylation of glyceraldehydes-3-phosphate.
The GAPDH gene is constitutively and stably expressed at high levels in almost all tissues and cells, and as such is considered to be a “housekeeping” gene. Housekeeping proteins like GAPDH are useful as loading controls for western blots and protein normalization. |
Antigen
Peptide with sequence HQVVSSDFNSDT, from C Terminus of the GAPDH protein sequence according to NP_002037 was used as immunogen for this antibody. |
Application Notes
A GAPDH antibody is a widely used loading control for quantitative Western blotting. It is highly conserved across species and antibodies to GAPDH typically have broad species reactivity. |
