Demonstration of Immunochemical Cross-Reactivity of Dopa Decarboxylase and Histidine Decarboxylase Using Antibodies Against the Two Enzymes

  • Chapter
Biochemistry of Vitamin B6

  • 106 Accesses

Summary

A specific antibody against rat dopa decarboxylase (DDC) immunostained only DDC-containing cells both in rat and guinea-pig tissues. On the other hand, a specific anti-rat histidine decarboxylase (HDC) antibody which reacted only with HDC-containing cells in rat tissues immunostained DDC-containing cells also in guinea-pig tissues. On immunoblotting, anti-rat HDC antibody recognized not only rat HDC but also guinea-pig DDC.
