Target/Specificity | This UGDH antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 465-494 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human UGDH. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:10~50 |
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 | UGDH Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Function | Catalyzes the formation of UDP-alpha-D-glucuronate, a constituent of complex glycosaminoglycans (PubMed:21502315, PubMed:21961565, PubMed:22123821, PubMed:23106432, PubMed:25478983, PubMed:27966912, PubMed:30420606, PubMed:30457329). Required for the biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate. Required for embryonic development via its role in the biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans (By similarity). Required for proper brain and neuronal development (PubMed:32001716). |
Tissue Location | Detected in heart, placenta, liver, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, ovary, small intestine and colon (PubMed:9737970). Widely expressed (PubMed:9737970) |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene converts UDP-glucose to UDP-glucuronate and thereby participates in the biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, and heparan sulfate. These glycosylated compounds are common components of the extracellular matrix and likely play roles in signal transduction, cell migration, and cancer growth and metastasis. The expression of this gene is up-regulated by transforming growth factor beta and down-regulated by hypoxia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
