Gene Information

human ... MAOB(4129)

General description

Monoamine oxidase B (MAOB) is a flavin monoamine oxidase that catalyzes oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines. MAOB is found in the mitochondrial outer membrane. Dopamine is a major substrate of MAOB making it a target for the potential treatment of Parkinson′s disease and obesity.

Specificity

Anti-MAOB polyclonal antibody reacts with human, mouse, pig, bovine, canine, chicken, and rat monoamine oxidase B proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human MAOB

Application

Anti-MAOB polyclonal antibody is used to tag monoamine oxidase B for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of monoamine oxidase B in oxidative deamination of important amines such as the neurotransmitter dopamine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

MAOB belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. It is a enzyme located in the mitochondrial outer membrane. It catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines and plays an important role in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous sysytem and peripheral tissues. This protein preferentially degrades benzylamine and phenylethylamine.The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family.

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) rescues dopaminergic neurons from neurodegeneration and improves motor changes induced by 6-hydroxy-dopamine (6-OHDA) in rat parkinsonian models. Recently, we investigated the molecular background of the neuroprotective effect of PACAP in dopamine (DA)-based neurodegeneration using rotenone-induced
