Application

Anti-GAL3ST1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GAL3ST1 (Galactosylceramide sulfotransferase) gene encodes a protein that catalyzes the sulfonation of membrane glycolipids. It is also known as cerebroside sulfotransferase, CST. It catalyzes galactosylceramide sulfate (sulfatide) synthesis in the Golgi apparatus. Sulfatide is a major lipid component of the myelin sheath and of seminolipid present in spermatocytes. Its activity is increased in renal cancer cells.

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.

The galactosylceramide sulfotransferase (cerebroside sulfotransferase, CST) (EC 2.8.2.11) gene is highly expressed in human renal cancer cells. To elucidate the regulatory mechanism of its gene expression, we have determined the genomic organization of the human CST gene. The gene comprises

We have purified 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate:GalCer sulfotransferase [EC 2.8.2.11] from a human renal cancer cell line SMKT-R3 through a combination of affinity chromatographies using galactosylsphingosine, 3',5'-bisphosphoadenosine and heparin as ligands. The purified sulfotransferase showed a specific activity of 1.2 mumol/min/mg, which is

3- O -Sulphogalactosylceramide (sulphatide) is a major lipid component of myelin membranes, and is required for proper myelin formation. Sulphatide is synthesized in the Golgi apparatus by galactosylceramide sulphotransferase (CST; EC 2.8.2.11). Murine and human CSTs contain two putative N-glycosylation

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), a key regulator of energy metabolism and lipid homeostasis in multiple highly oxidative tissues, has been implicated in the metabolic derangements of diabetes and obesity. However, relatively less is known regarding its role in
