A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of GALNT6 antibody, Alternative Names: GALNT6 control peptide, GALNT6 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-GALNT6 Blocking Peptide, Udp-N-Acetyl-Alpha-D-Galactosamine:Polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 6 Blocking Peptide, Galnac-T6 Blocking Peptide, GALNAC-T6 Blocking Peptide, GalNAcT6 Blocking Peptide
GALNT6 is a member of the UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GalNAc-T) family of enzymes. GalNAc-Ts initiate mucin-type O-linked glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus by catalyzing the transfer of GalNAc to serine and threonine residues on target proteins. They are characterized by an N-terminal transmembrane domain, a stem region, a lumenal catalytic domain containing a GT1 motif and Gal/GalNAc transferase motif, and a C-terminal ricin/lectin-like domain.
