Anti-FTCD Antibody

Raised in rabbit against human formiminotransferase cyclodeaminase (FTCD), this polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets the bifunctional enzyme that links folate metabolism to the histidine degradation pathway and is highly expressed in hepatocytes. The unconjugated reagent is supplied as 100 µl of antiserum and is validated for western blot and immunohistochemistry on human samples, supporting studies of hepatocellular differentiation, bile duct epithelial biology, and cytoskeletal organization in hepatic tissue. Because FTCD is released from damaged hepatocytes, this reagent is also useful in research models of liver injury and hepatotoxicity, where its abundance serves as a sensitive indicator of hepatocellular integrity. Its known subcellular association with the Golgi apparatus further makes it a practical marker for examining hepatocyte polarity and intracellular trafficking in fixed and frozen tissue sections.
