A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of HSD11B1 antibody, catalog no. 70R-7468
Background:
HSD11B1 is a microsomal enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of the stress hormone cortisol to the inactive metabolite cortisone. In addition, HSD11B1 can catalyze the reverse reaction, the conversion of cortisone to cortisol. Too much cortisol can lead to central obesity, and a particular variation in this gene has been associated with obesity and insulin resistance in children.
