Description

Applications of GHAntibodies

GH3.1 antibodies are widely used in:

ApplicationDetailsExample Use Case
Western BlotDetects GH3 proteins (~55–68 kDa) in cell lysates .Validating GHDC expression in human breast tissue .
ImmunofluorescenceLocalizes GH3.1 to cytoplasm (e.g., JAR1) or nuclear envelope (e.g., GHDC) .Mapping JA-Ile synthesis sites in plant cells .
ELISAQuantifies hormone-conjugated metabolites in pathogen defense studies .Measuring JA-Ile levels in ozone-stressed plants .

Enzyme Kinetics of GH3 Family Proteins

Data from kinetic assays of GH3 homologs reveal substrate preferences :

ProteinSubstrateAcyl Substratekcatk_{cat} (min⁻¹)KmK_m (mM)kcat/Kmk_{cat}/K_m (min⁻¹ mM⁻¹)
PtGH3.6AspIAA571 ± 930.12 ± 0.054,680
SbGH3.11Glu2,4-D0.61 ± 0.030.63 ± 0.061.0
AtGH3.11AspJA382 ± 350.13 ± 0.032,920

Note: AtGH3.11 (JAR1) shows high specificity for jasmonate conjugation, critical for stress responses .

Functional Insights

  • Pathogen Defense: JAR1 knockout plants exhibit impaired JA-Ile synthesis and increased susceptibility to necrotrophic fungi .

  • Morphogenesis: Anti-EGF receptor antibodies (e.g., 2G2-IgM) in GH3 pituitary cells induce prolactin synthesis and cytoskeletal changes, mimicking EGF effects .

  • Cancer Research: GHDC overexpression in mammary tumors correlates with STAT3/5 signaling dysregulation .

Challenges and Future Directions

  • Cross-Reactivity: Some GH3 antibodies (e.g., TL5-IgG) show species-specific binding, limiting utility in cross-species studies .

  • Functional Redundancy: Overlapping roles of GH3 isoforms complicate phenotype analysis in knockout models .

Target Background

Function
This antibody targets GH3.1, an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-amino acid conjugates. This process represents a key mechanism by which plants regulate and respond to excess auxin.
