PECI, also referred to as DRS1, ACBD2 or HCA88, is a protein that localizes to the peroxisomal matrix and contains one ACB (acyl-CoA-binding) domain. This protein is expressed abundantly in liver, heart and skeletal muscle. It functions to catalyze the isomerization of both 3-cis and 3-trans double bonds into the 2-trans form in a range of enoyl-CoA species, playing an important role in the b-oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids.

Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
