General description
Monoclonal Anti-Tryptophan Hydroxylase (mouse IgG3 isotype) is derived from the WH-3 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH; L-tryptophan tetrahydropteridine:oxygen oxidoreductase; EC 1.14.16.4), the rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of serotonin, is a very specific enzyme found only inside serotoninergic neurons.
The tryptophan hydroxylase 1 gene (TPH1) is a 444 amino acid protein encoded by the gene spanning 29 kbp with11 exons on human chromosome 11p15.3-p14. The enzyme is expressed in the gut, spleen, thymus, pituitary and also in the pineal gland.
Immunogen
recombinant rabbit tryptophan hydroxylase.
Application
Monoclonal Anti-Tryptophan Hydroxylase antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
- enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
- immunohistochemistry
- immunoblot
- immunocytochemistry
Biochem/physiol Actions
The tryptophan hydroxylase 1 gene (TPH1) catalyzes the synthesis of 5-hydroxytryptophan, which is a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin. Variation in the gene expression affects prefrontal cortex activation during response inhibition. Mutation in the TPH1 gene leads to schizophrenia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in women, suicidal behavior and depressive disorders. The encoded protein plays a vital role in regulation of cardiovascular function.
This antibody reacts specifically with tryptophan hydroxylase.

The DBA/1 mouse is a relevant animal model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), as it exhibits seizure-induced respiratory arrest (S-IRA) evoked by acoustic stimulation, followed by cardiac arrhythmia and death. Defects in serotonergic neurotransmission may contribute to S-IRA.
