Anti-GALA antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the GALA antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the GLA gene, which encodes galactosidase alpha. This protein is known to function in metabolic processes, among other biological roles. The human version of GALA has a canonical amino acid length of 429 residues and a protein mass of 48.8 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the lysosomes of cells and notably expressed in many tissues, such as the adrenal gland and breast. Other names for this target antigen include alpha-galactosidase A and agalsidase alfa. Western Blot is the most common application for the GALA antibodies listed below. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
