Other Names | Membrane primary amine oxidase, Copper amine oxidase, HPAO, Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase, SSAO, Vascular adhesion protein 1, VAP-1, AOC3, VAP1 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP8538c was selected from the Center region of human AOC3. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | AOC3 (HGNC:550) |

Synonyms | VAP1 |
Function | Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of primary amines to the corresponding aldehydes with the concomitant production of hydrogen peroxide and ammonia (PubMed:19588076, PubMed:24304424, PubMed:9653080). Has a preference for the primary monoamines methylamine and benzylamine (PubMed:19588076, PubMed:9653080). Could also act on 2-phenylethylamine but much less efficiently (PubMed:19588076). At endothelial cells surface can also function as a cell adhesion protein that participates in lymphocyte extravasation and recirculation by mediating the binding of lymphocytes to peripheral lymph node vascular endothelial cells in an L-selectin-independent fashion (PubMed:9254657, PubMed:9653080). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Strongly expressed on the high endothelial venules of peripheral lymph nodes and on hepatic endothelia. Also highly expressed in appendix, lung and small intestine. Expressed also in adipose tissue, in bone marrow, colon, heart, kidney, ovary, pancreas, placenta, prostate, skeletal muscle, spleen and testis. Isoform 2 seems to be the predominant transcript in fetal kidneys, fetal cartilage and fetal tonsils. The highest relative expression of isoform 2 occurs in skeletal muscle, heart, pancreas, kidney, and lung |
