GALNT2 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2, which is encoded by the GALNT2 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 residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 571 residues, a mass of 64.7 kDa, and is a member of the Glycosyltransferase 2 protein family. It is known to be localized in the golgi and is secreted and is widely expressed across many tissue types. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The GALNT2 gene has been associated with the disease, Congenital disorder of glycosylation. Other alias names for this target include GalNAc-T2, UDP-GalNAc:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2, UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GalNAc-T2), and CDG2T.
There are GALNT2 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 0.156 ng/mL and as high as 500 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
