The present invention provides antigenic peptides useful for the production of antibodies which selectively bind to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast. Antibodies which specifically bind to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast are also provided. In addition, methods of producing the subject antibodies, a method of detecting the presence and amount of a specific enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids, and a method of monitoring the degree of enzyme induction and/or enzyme stability in a mixture during ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast, are also provided.
An antigenic peptide useful for the production of antibodies which selectively bind to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast, wherein said peptide has an amino acid sequence as set forth in at least one of SEQ ID NO:15, SEQ ID NO:16, SEQ ID NO:17, SEQ ID NO:18, SEQ ID NO:19, SEQ ID NO:20, or SEQ ID NO:31, or an analog, derivative or immunologically active fragment thereof.
An antibody which specifically binds to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast, wherein said antibody selectively binds to a peptide having an amino acid sequence as set forth in at least one of SEQ ID NO:15, SEQ ID NO:16, SEQ ID NO:17, SEQ ID NO:18, SEQ ID NO:19, SEQ ID NO:20, or SEQ ID NO:31 or an analog, derivative or immunologically active fragment thereof.
A method for producing antibodies which selectively bind to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast which comprises:
A method for producing antibodies which selectively bind to an enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in yeast which comprises:
A method of detecting the presence and amount of a specific enzyme involved in the ω-oxidation of fatty acids and alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids in a mixture suspected of having said enzyme which comprises:
A method of monitoring the degree of enzyme induction and/or enzyme stability in a mixture during ω-oxidation of fatty acids or alkanes to α,ω-dicarboxylic acids which comprises:
