Product Description
Polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 Mouse Recombinant
Overview
Polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 (Galnt1) is a part of the UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GalNAc-T) family of enzymes. The initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis is catalyzed by Glant1, the transfer of an N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. Moreover, Galnt1 is implicated in the glycosylation of proteins vital for bone formation for instance osteopontin and bone sialoprotein.
Biological Activity
The specific activity which is defined as the amount of enzyme that transfer 1.0 pmole of GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to peptide EA2 per minute at pH 8.0 at 37C is > 300 pmol/min/ug.
Specifications
| Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|---|---|
| Formulation | GALNT1 protein solution (1mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) containing 0.1M NaCl and 10% glycerol. |
| Storage | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Expression System | Sf9, Insect cells. |
