Target/Specificity | This CASD1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 97-126 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human CASD1. |
Dilution | FC~~1:10~50 WB~~1:1000 E~~Use at an assay dependent concentration. |
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 | CASD1 Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Function | Key enzyme in the biosynthesis of O-acetylated (O-Ac) sialoglycans such as gangliosides O-AcGD3 and O-AcGD2, which affect various processes such as cell-cell interactions, host-pathogen recognition (PubMed:20947662, PubMed:26169044, PubMed:34208013). Catalyzes the transfer of an acetyl group from a donor, the acetyl- coenzyme-A molecule (acetyl-CoA), to the C7/8/9 OH-position of a sialic acid residue (PubMed:20947662, PubMed:26169044). The primary site of O- acetyl group transfer on sialic acid seems to depend on cell type and can be C7, from which the O-acetyl group could subsequently migrate to the C8 and then to the C9 position, or at C9 with possibility of migrating to the C8 and then to the C7 position (PubMed:20947662, PubMed:26169044). Together with ST8SIA1 (GD3 synthase) it increases the levels of ganglioside Ac-O-7-GD3 (PubMed:20947662). Can transfer the acetyl group from acetyl-CoA to free sialate (N-acetylneuraminate, Neu5Ac) in vitro, but has preferred substrate specificity for CMP- activated sialate (CMP-Neu5Ac), resulting in the formation of 9-O- acetylated CMP-Neu5Ac (CMP-Neu5,9Ac2) (PubMed:26169044). CMP-Neu5,9Ac2 may be used by sialyltransferases as a sialate donor for glycoconjugate acceptors such as ganglioside GD3 (PubMed:26169044). O-acetylation at position C9 of ganglioside GD3 can counteract the pro-apoptotic effects of the ganglioside GD3 in tumor cells (PubMed:12486096). |
