Extra Details:: Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FASN gene. It is mapped to 17q25. The enzyme encoded by this gene is a multifunctional protein. Its main function is to catalyze the synthesis of palmitate from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, in the presence of NADPH, into long-chain saturated fatty acids. In some cancer cell lines, this protein has been found to be fused with estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), in which the N-terminal of FAS is fused in-frame with the C-terminal of ER-alpha. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.1-0.5ug/m Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 0.5-1ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
