Far1 Antibodies

AND Far1 ELISA kits, Far1 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Far1, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Far1 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Far1 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Far1 by testing them on tissues known to express Far1 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the Far1 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 0 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Far1 Overview

Facts about Fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1.

Fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1 (Far1)

Catalyzes the reduction of saturated and unsaturated C16 or C18 fatty acyl-CoA to fatty alcohols (PubMed:15220348, PubMed:15220349). It plays an essential role in the creation of ether lipids/plasmalogens which synthesis requires fatty alcohols (By similarity).

In parallel, it's also required for wax monoesters production because fatty alcohols also constitute a substrate for their synthesis (PubMed:15220349). .
