The protein is the NADP(+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase found in the cytoplasm and peroxisomes.
This protein contains the PTS-1 peroxisomal targeting signal sequence.
The presence of this enzyme in peroxisomes suggests roles in the regeneration of NADPH for intraperoxisomal reductions, such as the conversion of 2, 4-dienoyl-CoAs to 3-enoyl-CoAs, as well as in peroxisomal reactions that consume 2-oxoglutarate, namely the alpha-hydroxylation of phytanic acid.
The cytoplasmic enzyme serves a significant role in cytoplasmic NADPH production.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot.
