Beschreibung

General description

Protein O-GlcNAcase (UniProt: O60502; also known as EC:3.2.1.169, OGA, Beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, Beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase, Beta-hexosaminidase, Meningioma-expressed antigen 5, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, Nuclear cytoplasmic O-GlcNAcase and acetyltransferase, NCOAT) is encoded by the OGA (also known as HEXC, KIAA0679 MEA5, MGEA5) gene (Gene ID: 10724) in human. O-GlcNAcylation is an important posttranslational modification found on serine and threonine residues that is brought about by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAcase (OGA). They mediate the dynamic cycling of O-GlcNAcylation on a wide variety of cytosolic, nuclear, and mitochondrial proteins. In this cycling, OGT catalyzes the addition of O-GlcNAc to proteins and OGA catalyzes the removal of this modification. Disruption in the activity of OGT and OGA has been implicated in multiple disease states. Deletion of genes for these enzymes causes early postnatal lethality. OGA is an evolutionarily conserved,  monomeric enzyme that is ubiquitously distributed. Its highest expression is observed in the brain, placenta, and pancreas. Four isoforms of OGA have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. Isoform 1 (long isoform)  is reported to cleave GlcNAc but nor GalNAc from O-glycosylated proteins. Its activity is inhibited by N-acetylglucosamine and not N-acetylgalactosamine. The long isoform of OGA resides mainly within the cytosol, whereas the short isoform localizes in the nucleus and lipid droplets, and it has lower enzymatic activity. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clone 1B3 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects O-GlcNAcase (OGA/MGEA5). It targets an epitope within 24 amino acids from the internal region.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Preparation Note

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.

Reconstitute lyophilized antibody pellet with 25μL of ultrapure water or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Please refer to our reconstitution protocol and the specific application guidance on the suggested starting dilutions and sample type.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
