Make to order. Production time: 70-80 business days. Deliverables: 1. 200 µg antigen (used as positive control), 2. 1 ml pre-immune serum (used as negative control) , 3. Rabbit polyclonal antibody, antigen affinity purified. Quality Guarantee: 1. Antibody purity > 90% confirmed by SDS-PAGE, 2. Antibody titer > 1: 64,000 confirmed by ELISA, 3. WB positive with the immunogen protein (not applicable for synthetic peptide). Applications: ELISA, WB (positive for the recombinant immunogen protein/peptide). Buffer: Preservative: 0.03% Proclin 300, Constituents: 50% Glycerol, 0.01M PBS, pH 7.4. Protein function: Catalyzes two distinct but analogous reactions: the reversible epimerization of UDP-glucose to UDP-galactose and the reversible epimerization of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to UDP-N- acetylgalactosamine (PubMed:20519568, PubMed:22654673). The reaction with UDP-Gal plays a critical role in the Leloir pathway of galactose catabolism in which galactose is converted to the glycolytic intermediate glucose 6-phosphate. It contributes to the catabolism of dietary galactose and enables the endogenous biosynthesis of both UDP- Gal and UDP-GalNAc when exogenous sources are limited (PubMed:22654673). Both UDP-sugar interconversions are important in the synthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids. [The UniProt Consortium]
