ANTI-UDP-GALACTOSE TRANSPORTER CLONE 1H10.1

General description

UDP-galactose translocator (UniProt P78381; also known as Solute carrier family 35 member A2, UDP-Gal-Tr, UDP-galactose transporter, UDP-galactose transporter, UGT) is encoded by the SLC35A2 (also known as CDG2M, UGALT, UGT, UGTL) gene (Gene ID 7355) in human. UGT is a multi-pass membrane protein that transports UDP-galactose from the cytosol into the Golgi vesicles where it serves as a glycosyl donor for the generation of glycans. Its short N-terminal region, composed of 35 amino-acid residues, is reported to be crucial for galactosylation of N-glycans. Mutations in SLC35A2 gene are known to reduce UDP-galactose transport that leads to galactose-deficient glycoproteins resulting in developmental delays, hyotonia, ocular anomalies, and brain malfunctions. Higher expression of UGT mRNA has been reported in human colon cancer. Ref.: Ng, BG., et al. (2013). Am. J. Human Gen. 92, 632-636.

Specificity

The immunogen sequence is 100% present in spliced isoforms 1 (UGT2) and 3, while being only partially present in spliced isoforms 2 (UGT1), 4, and 5 reported by UniProt (P78381), reactivity toward these latter isoforms has not been confirmed.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human UDP-Gal transporter C-terminal end sequence.
