Fish D-Glucuronyl C5-Epimerase (GLCE) ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a negatively charged cell surface polysaccharide required for the biologic activities of circulating extracellular ligands. GLCE is responsible for epimerization of D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) to L-iduronic acid (IdoA) of HS, which endows the nascent polysaccharide chain with the ability to bind growth factors and cytokines (Ghiselli and Agrawal, 2005 [PubMed 15853773]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2008]
Uniprot Description
GLCE: Converts D-glucuronic acid residues adjacent to N- sulfate sugar residues to L-iduronic acid residues, both in maturing heparan sulfate (HS) and heparin chains. This is important for further modifications that determine the specificity of interactions between these glycosaminoglycans and proteins. Belongs to the D-glucuronyl C5-epimerase family.

Product Notes
The Fish GLCE glce (Catalog #AAA9348862) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9348862 ELISA Kit recognizes Fish GLCE. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "D-Glucuronyl C5-Epimerase (GLCE), ELISA Kit" 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
