Mouse Anti-MFNG (Beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase Manic Fringe, O-fucosylpeptide 3-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) (FITC)

MFNG is a 52-55kD member of the glucosyltransferase 31 family. It is a Golgi membrane protein that transfers N-acetylglucosamine to an O-linked fucose residue on Notch. Activity on Notch increases Delta-1 induced signaling while suppressing Jagged-1 signaling. MFNG is found in fetal pancreatic endocrine progenitor cells and immature ventricular zone neurons. Human MFNG is a 321aa type II transmembrane protein. It contains a short 7aa cytoplasmic region, plus a 294aa luminal domain (aa28-321). There are two potential splice variants, one that shows a 15aa substitution for aa104-321, and another that contains a three aa substitution for aa86-102. Over aa37-321, human MFNG shares 85% aa identity with mouse MFNG.

Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
Immunogen

Form
Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2. No preservative added. Labeled with Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
Purity
Purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.
Specificity
Recognizes human MFNG.

Intended for research use only. Not for use in human, therapeutic, or diagnostic applications.
