Biological background
Biological context: This is a receptor for interleukin-3.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Membrane. Single-pass type I membrane protein., tissue context: Brain..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare GFPT1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of GFPT1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify GFPT1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Glucosamine—fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase isomerizing 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GFPT1 gene. This gene encodes the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the hexosamine pathway and controls the flux of glucose into the hexosamine pathway. The product of this gene catalyzes the formation of glucosamine 6-phosphate.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Membrane. Single-pass type I membrane protein.
- Tissue details: Brain.
- Research category: Adaptive Immunity,B Cells,Hematopoietic Progenitors,Immunoglobulins,Immunology,Lymphoid,Receptors,Stem Cells
