The protein encoded by this gene has a long and a short form, generated by use of alternative translational start codons. The long form is expressed in steroidogenic tissues such as testis, where it converts cholesteryl esters to free cholesterol for steroid hormone production. The short form is expressed in adipose tissue, among others, where it hydrolyzes stored triglycerides to free fatty acids. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human HSL around the phosphorylation site of Ser552. AA range:518-567
Specificity
Phospho-HSL (S552) Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of HSL protein only when phosphorylated at S552.
Formulation
