The CHPF Polyclonal Antibody (PAC023799) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the CHPF protein, which plays a key role in various cellular processes. This antibody, produced using rabbits, shows high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding to the CHPF protein, researchers can accurately detect and analyze its expression in different cell types, making it an essential component for studies in cell biology and cancer research.
CHPF, also known as chondrocyte protein with a polyproline II helix motif, is involved in important cellular functions such as cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. Its involvement in these processes highlights its potential significance in diseases like cancer, where dysregulation of cell growth and apoptosis pathways can lead to tumorigenesis. Understanding the role of CHPF is crucial for developing targeted therapies that can manipulate these pathways for therapeutic benefit.

Background:
Has both beta-1,3-glucuronic acid and beta-1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine transferase activity. Transfers glucuronic acid (GlcUA) from UDP-GlcUA and N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to the non-reducing end of the elongating chondroitin polymer. Isoform 2 may facilitate PARK2 transport into the mitochondria. In collaboration with PARK2, isoform 2 may enhance cell viability and protect cells from oxidative stress.
