Target/Specificity | This GYG1 antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 314-347 amino acids from human GYG1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 FC~~1:25 |
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 | GYG1 Antibody (C-Term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | GYG1 (HGNC:4699) |

Function | Glycogenin participates in the glycogen biosynthetic process along with glycogen synthase and glycogen branching enzyme. It catalyzes the formation of a short alpha (1,4)-glucosyl chain covalently attached via a glucose 1-O-tyrosyl linkage to internal tyrosine residues and these chains act as primers for the elongation reaction catalyzed by glycogen synthase. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P13280}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P13280}. Note=Localizes to glycogen granules (glycosomes) in the cytoplasm (By similarity). Cytosolic localization is dependent on the actin cytoskeleton (By similarity) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:C4R941, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P13280} |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in skeletal muscle and heart, with lower levels in brain, lung, kidney and pancreas |
