Background Information
FADS1, also known as Delta-5 desaturase or D5D, is a 444 amino acid protein that belongs to the fatty acid desaturase (FADS) gene family. Desaturase enzymes regulate unsaturation of fatty acids through the introduction of double bonds between defined carbons of the fatty acyl chain. FADS1 is a key enzyme in polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) metabolism that catalyze the conversion of linoleic acid (LA) into arachidonic acid (AA) and that of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) into eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). FADS1 has two isform: 42 kDa, 52 kDa. FADS1 undergoes multiple post-translational modifications, including ubiquitination, phosphorylation, and glycation, which may alter its molecular weight to 55-60 kDa.

Reviews
What customers say
Overall, reviewers rate this antibody positively for Western Blot, with most giving 5 stars. Users report specific bands at the correct size and reliable, reproducible results across melanoma and cancer cell lines, typically at a 1:1000 dilution. One reviewer noted variable expression levels between cell lines, and another gave a lower rating, finding the band unclear and suggesting a higher antibody amount may be needed. In summary, it is generally considered a well-validated, dependable reagent, though some users recommend optimizing conditions and confirming specificity with appropriate controls.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Jelan (Verified Customer) (01-14-2026) | The REDD1 antibody from Proteintech is a useful, well-validated reagent that generally produces specific bands in Western blots and works reliably when properly optimized. As with any antibody, we confirm specificity with appropriate controls and titrate conditions for your particular assay to ensure the best results.
