Host:: Mouse
Immunogen:: Purified recombinant fragment of human FUK expressed in E. coli.
Clone:: 13B327
Format:: Supplied as a liquid, 0.03% sodium azide.
Extra Details:: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the GHMP (galacto-, homoserine, mevalonate and phosphomevalonate) kinase family and catalyzes the phosphorylation of L-fucose to form beta-L-fucose 1-phosphate. This enzyme catalyzes the first step in the utilization of free L-fucose in glycoprotein and glycolipid synthesis. L-fucose may be important in mediating a number of cell-cell interactions such as blood group antigen recognition, inflammation, and metastatis. While several transcript variants may exist for this gene, the full-length nature of only one has been described to date. (provided by RefSeq) Applications: Western Bloting: 1:500-1:2000.
