CHST5 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Human Genome Knockout Libraries This gene is a member

This gene is a member of a conserved family of genes that share a common DNA-binding domain

more specifically the alpha q subfamily of G proteins

Unlike the rat homolog| the human gene is expressed in very low amounts in liver such that its mRNA was undetectable by routine Northern-blot analysis or its product by immunoblotting or by enzyme activity measurements

It is very conserved in evolution

CHST5 Polyclonal Antibody, 50ul Human Genome Knockout Libraries This gene is a memberThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Gal GalNAc GlcNAc 6 O sulfotransferase (GST) family, members of which catalyze the transfer of sulfate to position 6 of galactose (Gal), N acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), or N acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues within proteoglycans, and sulfation of O linked sugars of mucin type acceptors. Carbohydrate sulfation plays a critical role in many biologic processes. This gene is predominantly expressed in
