ELISA: 1:50,000
Immunoprecipitation: 1:150
Western Blot: 1:500-1:1,000
Involved in lipid remodeling steps of GPI-anchor maturation. Remodeling steps consist in the generation of 2 saturated fatty chains at the sn-2 position of GPI-anchor proteins.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-specific phospholipase that primarily localizes to the Golgi apparatus. This ubiquitously expressed gene is predicted to encode a seven-transmembrane protein that removes unsaturated fatty acids from the sn-2 position of GPI. The remodeling of the constituent fatty acids on GPI is thought to be important for the proper association between GPI-anchored proteins and lipid rafts. The tethering of proteins to plasma membranes via posttranslational GPI-anchoring is thought to play a role in protein sorting and trafficking. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal recessive neurologic disorder hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome 4 (HPMRS4). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]
Uniprot Description
PGAP3: Involved in the lipid remodeling steps of GPI-anchor maturation. Lipid remodeling steps consist in the generation of 2 saturated fatty chains at the sn-2 position of GPI-anchors proteins. Required for phospholipase A2 activity that removes an acyl-chain at the sn-2 position of GPI-anchors during the remodeling of GPI (Probable). Belongs to the PGAP3 family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The PGAP3 pgap3 (Catalog #AAA543721) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PGAP3 Antibody FITC-Conjugated reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PGAP3 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Dot Blot (DB), ELISA (EIA), IMM, Western Blot (WB). Dot Blot: 1:50,000 ELISA: 1:50,000 Immunoprecipitation: 1:150 Western Blot: 1:500-1:1,000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PGAP3 pgap3 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 "PGAP3, 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
