CHST8 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein carbohydrate sulfotransferase 8, which is encoded by the CHST8 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to catalyze the transfer of sulfate to position 4 of non-reducing N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residues in both N-glycans and O-glycans. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 424 residues, a mass of 48.8 kDa, and is a member of the Sulfotransferase 2 protein family. It is known to be localized in the golgi and is reported to be highly expressed in the pituitary gland. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The CHST8 gene has been associated with the disease, Peeling skin syndrome. Other alias names for this target include GalNAc-4-O-sulfotransferase 1, N-acetylgalactosamine-4-O-sulfotransferase 1, carbohydrate (N-acetylgalactosamine 4-0) sulfotransferase 8, galNAc4ST-1, and GALNAC-4-ST1.
There are CHST8 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
