Target/Specificity | This GAA antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 174-203 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human GAA. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P-Leica~~1:500 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | GAA Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | GAA |
---|---|
Function | Essential for the degradation of glycogen in lysosomes (PubMed:14695532, PubMed:18429042, PubMed:1856189, PubMed:7717400). Has highest activity on alpha-1,4-linked glycosidic linkages, but can also hydrolyze alpha-1,6-linked glucans (PubMed:29061980). |
Cellular Location | Lysosome. Lysosome membrane |

Background
This gene encodes acid alpha-glucosidase, which is essential for the degradation of glycogen to glucose in lysosomes. Different forms of acid alpha-glucosidase are obtained by proteolytic processing. Defects in this gene are the cause of glycogen storage disease II, also known as Pompe's disease, which is an autosomal recessive disorder with a broad clinical spectrum. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
