Anti-PLA1A Antibody

This rabbit-derived polyclonal reagent targets phospholipase A1 member A (PLA1A), a lipid-metabolizing enzyme within the pancreatic lipase-related family. PLA1A cleaves the sn-1 acyl chain of glycerophospholipids to release a free fatty acid and a lysophospholipid, two lipid mediators that feed into membrane remodeling, lipid signaling, and extracellular lipid remodeling pathways. The unconjugated IgG reagent is formatted for Western blot on human and mouse samples and has been used by researchers investigating lipid handling, inflammation, and tumor biology, where altered PLA1A activity has been associated with atherosclerotic vascular processes and dysregulated lipid metabolism in cancer cell lines. Supplied as a 200 µl vial from Antibodies.com, the antibody offers a polyclonal epitope spread suited to detecting the full-length PLA1A protein in immunoblotting workflows.
