Informations sur le gène

human ... GALNT2(2590)

Description générale

GALNT2 (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2) belongs to the ppGalNAc-T family, and is a type II transmembrane protein. The catalytic domain resides in the Golgi luminal region, and the R-type lectin domain lies in the C-terminal. This gene is localized to human chromosome 1q41-q42.

Immunogène

polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2

Application

Anti-GALNT2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

GALNT2 (polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2) catalyzes the first step of O-linked glycosylation of proteins. It is responsible for the attachment of first N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) monosaccharide to the protein. The expression of this gene is up-regulated in cancers, and it might be involved in tumorigenesis. It suppresses the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, and thus prevents proliferation and metastasis of gastric cancer cells. It modulates the development of placenta by regulating extravillus trophoblast (EVT) invasion. GALNT2 is also involved in insulin homeostasis by regulating the expression of ENPP1 (ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase), which is an inhibitor of insulin receptor signaling. Its expression is reduced in type 2 diabetes patients, and thus, it might play a role in hyperglycemia. It is up-regulated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and enhances the invasiveness of OSCC by modulating the O-glycosylation and activity of EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor).

Caractéristiques et avantages

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Aberrant expression of the simple mucin-type carbohydrate antigens such as Tn antigen is associated with malignant transformation and cancer progression. N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GALNT2), one of the enzymes that mediate the initial step of mucin-type O-glycosylation, is responsible for forming Tn

A homologous family of UDP- N -acetylgalactosamine: polypeptide N -acetylgalactosaminyltransferases (GalNAc-transferases) initiate O-glycosylation. These transferases share overall amino acid sequence similarities of approximately 45-50%, but segments with higher similarities of approximately 80% are found in the putative catalytic domain. Here

Biological functions of nuclear proteins are regulated by post-translational modifications (PTMs) that modulate gene expression and cellular physiology. However, the role of O-linked glycosylation (O-GalNAc) as a PTM of nuclear proteins in the human cell has not been previously reported.
