Rabbit OGT Polyclonal Antibody | anti-OGT antibody
OGT Antibody (C-term)
Western Blot (WB)
(Western blot analysis of OGT antibody (C-term) in mouse bladder tissue lysates (35ug/lane). OGT (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.)
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human brain tissue reacted with OGT Antibody (C-term), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated.)

NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the addition of a single N-acetylglucosamine in O-glycosidic linkage to serine or threonine residues. Since both phosphorylation and glycosylation compete for similar serine or threonine residues, the two processes may compete for sites, or they may alter the substrate specificity of nearby sites by steric or electrostatic effects. The protein contains multiple tetratricopeptide repeats that are required for optimal recognition of substrates. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
Uniprot Description
OGT: Catalyzes the transfer of a single N-acetylglucosamine from UDP-GlcNAc to a serine or threonine residue in cytoplasmic and nuclear proteins resulting in their modification with a beta- linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc). Glycosylates a large and diverse number of proteins including histone H2B, AKT1, MLL5, MAPT/TAU and HCFC1. Can regulate their cellular processes via cross-talk between glycosylation and phosphorylation or by affecting proteolytic processing. Involved in insulin resistance in muscle and adipocyte cells via glycosylating insulin signaling components and inhibiting the 'Thr-308' phosphorylation of AKT1, enhancing IRS1 phosphorylation and attenuating insulin signaling. Component of a THAP1/THAP3-HCFC1-OGT complex that is required for the regulation of the transcriptional activity of RRM1. As part of the NSL complex it may be involved in acetylation of nucleosomal histone H4 on several lysine residues. Heterotrimer; consists of one 78 kDa subunit and two 110 kDa subunits dimerized via TPR repeats 6 and 7. Interacts (via TPR repeats 6 and 7) with ATXN10. Component of the MLL5-L complex, at least composed of MLL5, STK38, PPP1CA, PPP1CB, HCFC1, PPP1CC and ACTB. Component of a THAP1/THAP3-HCFC1-OGT complex. Component of the NSL complex at least composed of MOF/KAT8, KANSL1, KANSL2, KANSL3, MCRS1, PHF20, OGT1/OGT, WDR5 and HCFC1. Interacts directly with HCFC1; the interaction O- glycosylates HCFC1, regulates its proteolytic processing and transcriptional activity and, in turn, stabilizes OGT in the nucleus. Interacts (via TPRs 1-6) with SIN3A; the interaction mediates transcriptional repression in parallel with histone deacetylase. Induction of the nucleocytoplasmic OGT (ncOGT) isoform in the liver on glucose deprivation is mediated by the decreased hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) flux. Highly expressed in pancreas and to a lesser extent in skeletal muscle, heart, brain and placenta. Present in trace amounts in lung and liver. Subject to product inhibition by UDP. Belongs to the O-GlcNAc transferase family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The OGT ogt (Catalog #AAA9202470) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 1017-1046. The OGT Antibody (C-term) reacts with Human, mouse (Predicted Reactivity: Pig, Rabbit, Rat) and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's OGT can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). WB~~1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the OGT ogt 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 "OGT, 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
