A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of GALNT5 antibody, Alternative Names: GALNT5 control peptide, GALNT5 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-GALNT5 Blocking Peptide, Udp-N-Acetyl-Alpha-D-Galactosamine:Polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 5 Blocking Peptide, Galnac-T5 Blocking Peptide, GALNAC-T5 Blocking Peptide, MGC165041 Blocking Peptide
GALNT5 can catalyze the initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis,the transfer of an N-acetyl-D-galactosamine residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. GALNT5 has activity toward EA2 peptide substrate, but it has a weak activity toward Muc2 or Muc1b substrates.
