GM2/GD2 synthase Polyclonal Antibody

Ab type

Primary antibody

Background

GM2 and GD2 gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids. Beta-1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 is the enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of G(M2) and G(D2) glycosphingolipids. Beta-1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 catalyzes the transfer of GalNAc into G(M3) and G(D3) by a beta-1,4 linkage, resulting in the synthesis of G(M2) and G(D2), respectively. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
