Description

The One-Carbon Metabolism Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of detecting select components involved in one-carbon metabolism pathway. The kit contains enough primary antibodies to perform at least two western blot experiments per antibody.

Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Background

One-carbon metabolism includes various enzymatic reactions involving the transfer of one-carbon groups mediated by folate cofactor (1). The activated one-carbon groups are used by various metabolic pathways, including purine synthesis, thymidine synthesis, and remethylation of homocysteine to methionine (1). S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase-like protein 1 (AHCYL1) is a member of the S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase family, which participates in the metabolism of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine (2). Cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) is a key enzyme involved in sulfur amino acid metabolism as it catalyzes the formation of cystathionine from serine and homocysteine (3,4). Cystathionine γ-lyase (CGL) is an enzyme in the transsulfuration pathway, a route in the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids (5). Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), a key enzyme in one-carbon metabolism, catalyzes the conversion of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (1). 5-methyltetrahydrofolate donates its methyl group for remethylation of homocysteine to methionine (1). Methionine is further converted to S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), a major reactive methyl carrier (1). NADP+ dependent methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 1-like (MTHFD1L) is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the production of formate from 10-formyl-tetrahydrofolate in one-carbon flow from mitochondria to cytoplasm (6,7). MTHFD2 is a bifunctional methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase involved in mitochondrial folate metabolism (8). Serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1 (SHMT1) is a cytoplasmic serine hydroxylmethyltransferase (9,10). It catalyzes the conversion of serine to glycine with the transfer of β-carbon from serine to tetrahydrofolate (THF) to form 5, 10-methylene-THF (9, 10). The methylation of deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) to deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP) is an essential step in the formation of thymine nucleotides, a process catalyzed by thymidylate synthase (TS or TYMS) (11-13).
