A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of CYCS antibody, Alternative Names: CYCS control peptide, CYCS antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-CYCS Blocking Peptide, cytochrome c, somatic Blocking Peptide, CYC Blocking Peptide, HCS Blocking Peptide, THC4 Blocking Peptide
This gene encodes a small heme protein that functions as a central component of the electron transport chain in mitochondria. The encoded protein associates with the inner membrane of the mitochondrion where it accepts electrons from cytochrome b and transfers them to the cytochrome oxidase complex. This protein is also involved in initiation of apoptosis. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant nonsyndromic thrombocytopenia. Numerous processed pseudogenes of this gene are found throughout the human genome.
