Anti-UGT2A1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member A1 complex locus. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 527 amino acid residues and a mass of 60 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the ER and membrane. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the UDP-glycosyltransferase protein family, UGT2A1 is reported to be a UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) that catalyzes phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase the metabolite's water solubility, thereby facilitating excretion into either the urine or bile. Synonyms for this target antigen include UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2A1, UDP glucuronosyltransferase 2 family, polypeptide A1, complex locus, UDP glycosyltransferase 2 family, polypeptide A1, and UDPGT2A1. UGT2A1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse and rat species. Western Blot is a widely used application for the UGT2A1 antibodies listed below. In addition, Immunohistochemistry is also a common application.
