Gene Information

human ... GPT(2875)

General description

The GPT (Glutamate pyruvate transaminase 1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 8q24.3.The gene consists of 11 exons, and encodes a protein of 495 amino acids and is identical to the human GPT-1.

Immunogen

glutamic-pyruvate transaminase (alanine aminotransferase) recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-GPT antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Serum GPT serves as a common biomarker in screening chronic liver injury. GPT levels identify the risk of osteoporosis in non alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Linkage

Corresponding Antigen APREST76355

Physical form

Solution in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.

Two frequent protein variants of glutamate pyruvate transminase (GPT) (E.C.2.6.1.2) have been used as genetic markers in humans for more than two decades, although chromosomal mapping of the GPT locus in the 1980s produced conflicting results. To resolve this conflict
