Product Name :
CHST1 Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 1 (CHST1), also referred to as KSGal6ST or KSST, is a keratan sulfate sulfotransferase. It is predominantly expressed in brain and skeletal muscle and localizes to the trans-Golgi network. CHST1 is responsible for mediating the sulfation of keratan in the cornea, which is important in maintaining corneal transparency. In particular, CHST1 catalyzes the transfer of sulfate groups from 3’-phosphoadenosine 5’-phosphosulfate to position six of internal or terminal galactose residues (preferentially the residues adjacent to sulfated GlcNAc) on growing keratan sulfate chains. CHST1 also contributes to the generation of L-selectin ligands. Mutations in the CHST1 gene may play a role in macular corneal dystrophy (MCD). Alternative Name :
Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 1; Galactose/N-acetylglucosamine/N-acetylglucosamine 6-O-sulfotransferase 1; GST-1; Keratan sulfate Gal-6 sulfotransferase; KS6ST; KSGal6ST; KSST Swiss-Prot :
O43916 Product :
1 mg/ml in DI water. Purification&Purity :
Synthetic peptide CHST1. (Note: the amino acid sequence is proprietary). The purity is > 98%. Storage&Stability :
Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Specificity :
This peptide can be used with studies using BS5662 CHST1 pAb.
