Anti-DAD1 Antibody

Dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit DAD1; Oligosaccharyl transferase subunit DAD1; Defender against cell death 1; DAD-1; DAD1;

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 (PubMed:22467853) . 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 (By similarity) . Required for the assembly of both SST3A- and SS3B- containing OST complexes. Loss of the DAD1 protein triggers apoptosis (PubMed:22467853) .
