The following Carbohydrate Sulfotransferase 8 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of carbohydrate sulfotransferase 8 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CHST8 gene. 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. Its subcellular location is known to be in the golgi. In addition, it is reported to be highly expressed in the pituitary gland. In certain instances, it is also post-translationally glycosylated. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Peeling skin syndrome. This protein may also be known as GalNAc-4-O-sulfotransferase 1, N-acetylgalactosamine-4-O-sulfotransferase 1, carbohydrate (N-acetylgalactosamine 4-0) sulfotransferase 8, galNAc4ST-1, and GALNAC-4-ST1.
The detection range for different Carbohydrate Sulfotransferase 8 ELISA kits can vary, with some assays measuring target concentrations as low as 20 ng/L and as high as 10 ng/mL.
