Target/Specificity | This B4GALNT3 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 555-584 amino acids from the Central region of human B4GALNT3. |
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 | B4GALNT3 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | B4GALNT3 |
---|---|
Function | Transfers N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to N-acetylglucosamine-beta-benzyl with a beta-1,4-linkage to form N,N'- diacetyllactosediamine, GalNAc-beta-1,4-GlcNAc structures in N-linked glycans and probably O-linked glycans. Mediates the N,N'- diacetyllactosediamine formation on gastric mucosa. |
Cellular Location | Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Note=Localizes to apical Golgi |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in testis, colon and stomach. Weakly expressed in other tissues. |

Background
B4GALNT3 transfers N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) onto glucosyl residues to form N,N-prime-diacetyllactosediamine (LacdiNAc, or LDN), a unique terminal structure of cell surface N-glycans (Ikehara et al., 2006 [PubMed 16728562]).[supplied by OMIM].
