UGP2 monoclonal antibody Background :
UGP2 (UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase 2), also known as UDPG, UGPP2, UDPGP2 or pHC379, is an evolutionarily conserved protein belonging to the UDPGP type 1 family of proteins. Localizing to the cytoplasm, UGP2 forms homooligomers and is believed to function as a glucosyl donor in cellular metabolic pathways. More specifically, UGP2 catalyzes the transfer of a glucose moiety from glucose-1-phosphate to UTP, producing a diphosphate and UDP-glucose. UDP-glucose is an essential precursor for the synthesis of polysaccharides; in liver and muscle, UDP-glucose is a precursor of glycogen, in liver UDP-glucose is also a precursor of UDP-glucuronate, and in lactating mammary gland UDP-glucose is converted to UDP-galactose and then to lactose.

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
