PIGT Antibody

PIGT is a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) -anchor biosynthesis. The GPI-anchor is a glycolipid found on many blood cells and serves to anchor proteins to the cell surface. This protein is an essential component of the multisubunit enzyme, GPI transamidase. GPI transamidase mediates GPI anchoring in the endoplasmic reticulum, by catalyzing the transfer of fully assembled GPI units to proteins.This gene encodes a protein that is involved in glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) -anchor biosynthesis.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store PIGT antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

PIGT antibody can be used for detection of PIGT by ELISA at 1:62500. PIGT antibody can be used for detection of PIGT by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
