Anti-GalNAc-T2 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the GalNAc-T2 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the GALNT2 gene, which encodes polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2. This protein is known to 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. The human version of GalNAc-T2 has a canonical amino acid length of 571 residues and a protein mass of 64.7 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the Golgi and is secreted of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. GalNAc-T2 is a member of the Glycosyltransferase 2 protein family. Indicated applications for GalNAc-T2 antibodies listed below include ELISA, Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry.
