Product Overview:
Aconitase catalyzes the stereospecific isomerization of citrate to isocitrate in the first step of the citric acid cycle. It acts as an iron regulatory protein (IRP), controlling the translation of proteins involved in iron metabolism when iron is scarce and resumes aconitase activity when iron is abundant. Aconitase is now recognized as a regulator of iron-induced glutamate production.{17857} Oxalomalic acid, formed by the condensation of oxaloacetate with glyoxylate in vivo, inhibits both aconitase and NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase in the conversion of citrate to isocitrate at concentrations as low as 1 mM.{17849} At 5 mM, oxalomalic acid inhibition of aconitase leads to a decrease in the binding activity of IRP1 and a decrease in glutamate secretion in cultured lens epithelial cells, retinal pigment epithelial cells, and neurons.{17850,17851}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
