Anti-NAGA Antibody Picoband® HRP Conjugated

NAGA encodes the lysosomal enzyme alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminidase, which cleaves alpha-N-acetylgalactosaminyl moieties from glycoconjugates. Mutations in NAGA have been identified as the cause of Schindler disease types I and II (type II also known as Kanzaki disease) .

E.coli-derived human NAGA recombinant protein (Position: D43-R329) . Human NAGAshares 86.7% and 85.4% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat NAGA, respectively.
