Background Information
OPA1 is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein with similarity to dynamin-related GTPases. OPA1 localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and helps regulate mitochondrial stability and energy output. This protein also sequesters cytochrome c. OPA1 is associated with the inner membrane and protects cells from apoptosis by regulating inner membrane dynamics. Mutation of OPA1 causes the disease dominant optic atrophy, a degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells. OPA1 undergoes complex posttranscriptional regulation and posttranslational proteolysis. OPA1 is regulated by proteolytic cleavage, which degrades long OPA1 isoforms into short isoforms. The gene OPA1 can be cleaved into some chains with MW 100 kDa and 80-90 kDa.

Reviews
What customers say
All 9 reviews rate this antibody 5 stars. Users consistently report excellent performance, primarily in Western Blot, with clean bands at expected molecular weights across diverse cell types including HeLa, HEK, corneal cells, adipocytes, and primary cells. Several reviewers also confirmed successful use in IHC, IF, IP, and flow cytometry. Recommended dilutions range from 1:500 to 1:5,000. One user noted the absence of a second band in their specific application but found overall results as expected. The antibody is described as easy to use and reliable for reproducible results.
