Description

GDP-L-fucose synthase (GFUS), also known as TSTA3, is a key enzyme in the de novo biosynthetic pathway of GDP-fucose, the activated sugar donor required for fucosylation reactions. It catalyzes the NADPH-dependent conversion of GDP-4-keto-6-deoxymannose into GDP-L-fucose, completing the two-step enzymatic process that produces this critical substrate. Because fucosylation is essential for glycoprotein and glycolipid modification, GDP-L-fucose synthase is central to many cellular processes. Researchers often use a GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody to study glycosylation pathways, carbohydrate metabolism, and related diseases.

Fucosylation regulates a wide range of biological functions, including cell adhesion, signaling, immune recognition, and embryonic development. GDP-L-fucose synthase activity ensures that adequate levels of GDP-fucose are available for fucosyltransferases, the enzymes that attach fucose residues to glycoproteins and glycolipids. Employing a GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody enables the examination of its role in maintaining glycosylation balance and supporting normal cell physiology.

Deficiency of GDP-L-fucose synthase, due to mutations in the TSTA3 gene, can lead to congenital disorders of glycosylation. These rare metabolic syndromes are characterized by abnormal fucosylation, which results in developmental defects, immunological problems, and neurological symptoms. In addition, altered fucosylation patterns have been linked to cancer progression, making GDP-L-fucose synthase an important target for biomedical research. Using a GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody allows researchers to investigate these mechanisms and advance understanding of glycosylation-dependent processes.

NSJ Bioreagents provides a high-quality GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody validated for applications such as western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. Choosing a GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody from NSJ Bioreagents ensures consistent results and reproducibility in glycosylation and metabolism research.

Application Notes

Optimal dilution of the GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody should be determined by the researcher.

Immunogen

Recombinant human protein (amino acids K44-K321) was used as the immunogen for the GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody.

Storage

After reconstitution, the GDP-L-fucose synthase antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
