Rabbit anti-Human PIGZ Polyclonal Antibody | anti-PIGZ antibody
PIGZ Antibody; FITC conjugated
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells that serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This gene encodes a protein that is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, and is involved in GPI anchor biosynthesis. As shown for the yeast homolog, which is a member of a family of dolichol-phosphate-mannose (Dol-P-Man)-dependent mannosyltransferases, this protein can also add a side-branching fourth mannose to GPI precursors during the assembly of GPI anchors.

Uniprot Description
PIGZ: Mannosyltransferase involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor biosynthesis. Transfers a fourth mannose to some trimannosyl-GPIs during GPI precursor assembly. The presence of a fourth mannose in GPI is facultative and only scarcely detected, suggesting that it only exists in some tissues. Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 22 family. PIGZ subfamily.

Product Notes
The PIGZ pigz (Catalog #AAA7001908) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PIGZ Antibody; FITC conjugated reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PIGZ can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PIGZ pigz 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 "PIGZ, 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
