ME3 (malic enzyme 3), also known as NADP-ME (NADP-dependent malic enzyme, mitochondrial), is a 604 amino acid protein of the mitochondrial matrix that catalyzes the conversion of (S)-malate and NADP+ to pyruvate, carbon dioxide and NADPH. A member of the malic enzymes family, ME3 utilizes manganese and magnesium as cofactors and is expressed in tissues that divide at a low rate. The gene encoding ME3 maps to human chromosome 11, which houses over 1,400 genes and comprises nearly 4% of the human genome. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, Jacobsen syndrome, Niemann-Pick disease, hereditary angioedema and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome are associated with defects in genes that maps to chromosome 11.
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
