NPL blocking peptide
NPL Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the N-acetylneuraminate lyase sub-family of (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel enzymes. N-acetylneuraminate lyases regulate cellular concentrations of N-acetyl-neuraminic acid (sialic acid) by mediating the reversible conversion of sialic acid into N-acetylmannosamine and pyruvate. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 2. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Uniprot Description
NPL: Catalyzes the cleavage of N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) to form pyruvate and N-acetylmannosamine via a Schiff base intermediate. It prevents sialic acids from being recycled and returning to the cell surface. Belongs to the DHDPS family. NanA subfamily. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: EC 4.1.3.3; Carbohydrate Metabolism - amino sugar and nucleotide sugar; Lyase
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q25
Cellular Component: cytosol
Molecular Function: N-acetylneuraminate lyase activity; protein binding
Biological Process: N-acetylneuraminate catabolic process

Product Notes
The NPL npl (Catalog #AAA9223851) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "NPL, Blocking 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
