Description
Anti-GALT Antibody (CAB19903)[KO Validated]
The GALT Polyclonal Antibody (CAB19903) is a powerful tool for researchers studying the role of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) in cellular metabolism and disease. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is specifically designed to target GALT, an essential enzyme involved in the galactose metabolism pathway.With high reactivity to human samples, this antibody has been validated for use in Western blot applications, allowing for the detection and analysis of GALT protein levels in various cell types. This makes it an ideal choice for researchers in the fields of biochemistry, molecular biology, and genetics.
GALT is known to play a crucial role in the breakdown of galactose, a simple sugar found in dairy products and other foods. Mutations in the GALT gene can lead to Galactosemia, a rare genetic disorder that affects the body's ability to metabolize galactose. By studying the function of GALT using this antibody, researchers can gain insight into the underlying mechanisms of Galactosemia and potentially develop new therapeutic strategies for treating this condition.

Background: | Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (GALT) catalyzes the second step of the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism, namely the conversion of UDP-glucose + galactose-1-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate + UDP-galactose. The absence of this enzyme results in classic galactosemia in humans and can be fatal in the newborn period if lactose is not removed from the diet. The pathophysiology of galactosemia has not been clearly defined. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. |
UniProt Protein Function: | GALT: Defects in GALT are the cause of galactosemia (GALCT). Galactosemia is an inherited disorder of galactose metabolism that causes jaundice, cataracts, and mental retardation. Belongs to the galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase type 1 family. |
