Rabbit UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase Polyclonal Antibody | anti-UGCG antibody
Rabbit anti-human UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase polyclonal Antibody
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Glycosphingolipids (GSLs) are a group of membrane components that contain lipid and sugar moieties. They are present in essentially all animal cells and are believed to have important roles in various cellular processes. UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase catalyzes the first glycosylation step in glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. The product, glucosylceramide, is the core structure of more than 300 GSLs. UGCG is widely expressed and transcription is upregulated during keratinocyte differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Product Notes
The UGCG ugcg (Catalog #AAA719269) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Rabbit anti-human UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human,mouse,rat?Other species are not tested. Please decide the specificity by homology. and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the UGCG ugcg 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 "UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase, 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
