Anti-RPN2 Antibody

Dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit 2; Dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase 63 kDa subunit; RIBIIR; Ribophorin II; RPN-II; Ribophorin-2; RPN2;

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) .

Subunit of the oligosaccharyl transferase (OST) complex that catalyzes the initial transfer of a defined glycan (Glc (3) Man (9) GlcNAc (2) in eukaryotes) from the lipid carrier dolichol-pyrophosphate to an asparagine residue within an Asn-X- Ser/Thr consensus motif in nascent polypeptide chains, the first step in protein N-glycosylation. N-glycosylation occurs cotranslationally and the complex associates with the Sec61 complex at the channel-forming translocon complex that mediates protein translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) . All subunits are required for a maximal enzyme activity.
