Target/Specificity | This HHAT antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 30-59 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human HHAT. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 IHC-P~~1:50~100 FC~~1:10~50 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | HHAT Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Synonyms | MART2, SKI1 |
Function | Palmitoyl acyltransferase that catalyzes N-terminal palmitoylation of SHH; which is required for SHH signaling (PubMed:18534984, PubMed:24784881, PubMed:31875564). It also catalyzes N-terminal palmitoylation of DHH (PubMed:24784881). Promotes the transfer of palmitoyl-CoA from the cytoplasmic to the luminal side of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, where SHH palmitoylation occurs (PubMed:31875564). It is an essential factor for proper embryonic development and testicular organogenesis (PubMed:24784881). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Co-localizes with SHH in the ER and Golgi membrane. |
Tissue Location | Widely expressed. Expressed in fetal ovary and testis, with high levels of expression observed in Sertoli cells (PubMed:24784881). |

Background
'Skinny hedgehog' (SKI1) encodes an enzyme that acts within the secretory pathway to catalyze amino-terminal palmitoylation of 'hedgehog' (see MIM 600725).
