MDA (Malondialdehyde) is a highly reactive three carbon dialdehyde produced as a byproduct of polyunsaturated fatty acid peroxidation and arachidonic acid metabolism.
MDA readily combines with several functional groups on molecules including proteins, lipoproteins, and DNA.
MDA-modified proteins may show altered physico-chemical behavior and antigenicity.
Antibodies to MDA will help to visualize the MDA-adducts.
