Glycogen Synthase 1 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse

Background:
The glycogen synthase 1 encoded by GYS1 catalyzes the addition of glucose monomers to the growing glycogen molecule through the formation of alpha-1,4-glycoside linkages. Mutations in GYS1 are associated with muscle glycogen storage disease. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for GYS1.

Research Area: Signal Transduction, Metabolism

Synonyms: GYS1, GYS, Glycogen [starch] synthase, muscle

Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172. AA range:140-189

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.

Formulation: Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage:
-20°C for 1 year
