Degenerative Spermatocyte Homolog 2 Peptide | DEGS2 peptide
Degenerative Spermatocyte Homolog 2
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a bifunctional enzyme that is involved in the biosynthesis of phytosphingolipids in human skin and in other phytosphingolipid-containing tissues. This enzyme can act as a sphingolipid delta(4)-desaturase, and also as a sphingolipid C4-hydroxylase. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Product Notes
The DEGS2 degs2 (Catalog #AAA396380) is a Peptide produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Degenerative Spermatocyte Homolog 2 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Degenerative Spermatocyte Homolog 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DEGS2 degs2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Degenerative Spermatocyte Homolog 2, Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
