anti-Human glycogenin 2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-GYG2 antibody
Rabbit anti-human glycogenin 2 polyclonal Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the the glycogenin family. Glycogenin is a self-glucosylating protein involved in the initiation reactions of glycogen biosynthesis. A gene on chromosome 3 encodes the muscle glycogenin and this X-linked gene encodes the glycogenin mainly present in liver; both are involved in blood glucose homeostasis. This gene has a short version on chromosome Y, which is 3' truncated and can not make a functional protein. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
Uniprot Description

Product Notes
The GYG2 gyg2 (Catalog #AAA713789) is an Antibody and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit anti-human glycogenin 2 polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's glycogenin 2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the GYG2 gyg2 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 "glycogenin 2, Polyclonal Antibody" 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
