TargetHormone-sensitive lipase (HSL)
SpecificityThis antibody detects HSL at approx 83 kDa in various fat cell lysates from mouse and rat. Additional weaker band may appear at approx 40 kDa (unknown). Mouse, Rat, Human
Scientific BackgroundHormone Sensitive Lipase (HSL) hydrolyzes stored triglycerides to free fatty acids in adipose tissue and heart. In steroidogenic tissues, HSL principally converts cholesteryl esters to free cholesterol for steroid hormone production (ref: SWISSPROT).
