The Chicken Polyclonal anti-Tyrosine Hydroxylase antibody has been validated for WB, IF and IHC (p). It is suitable to detect Tyrosine Hydroxylase in samples from Human and Mouse.
Two antipeptide antibodies were generated in Chickens against sequences shared between the Mouse (P24529) and Human (P07101) gene products. Production: After repeated injections, immune eggs were collected, and the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks. These IgY fractions were then affinity-purified using a peptide column, and the concentrations of the eluates adjusted to 0.2 mg/ml. Finally, equal volumes of both of these affinity purified anti-peptide antibodies were mixed, and the preparation was filter-sterilized.

Background
Human TYH (EC 1.14.16.2) is a 58,523 dalton protein (528 amino acids) responsible for the enzymatic conversion of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA (dihydroxyphenylalanine). This enzyme is expressed in all catecholaminergic neurons of the CNS and PNS. In the CNS, TYH-positive neurons can be found within the substantia nigra, ventral tegmental area, locus ceruleus, and hypothalamus. In the PNS, TYH-positive neurons can be found within the sympathetic chain, pre-vertebral ganglia and the adrenal medulla.Synonyms: TYH, Tyrosine 3-hydroxylase
