Rabbit Anti-Glycogen Phosphorylase, Muscle Form, CT (PYGM, Myophosphorylase)

PYGM catalyzes and regulates the breakdown of glycogen to glucose-1-phosphate. Defects in PYGM are the cause of glycogen storage disease type 5 (GSD5), also known as McArdle disease. GSD5 is a metabolic disorder resulting in myopathy characterized by exercise intolerance, cramps, muscle weakness and recurrent myoglobinuria.

Applications
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
