GALNT13 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 13, which is encoded by the GALNT13 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to catalyze the initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis, the transfer of an N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) residue from UDP-GalNAc to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 556 residues, a mass of 64.1 kDa, and is a member of the Glycosyltransferase 2 protein family. It is known to be localized in the golgi and is notably expressed in neuronal cells. As many as 3 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. Other alias names for this target include UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 13, UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 13 (GalNAc-T13), polypeptide GalNAc transferase 13, and GalNAc transferase 13.
The detection range for different GALNT13 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 20 ng/L 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.
