Application Notes | SLC35D2 antibody can be used for detection of SLC35D2 by Western blot at 1 - 2 µg/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunocytochemistry starting at 5 µg/mL. |
Gene ID | 11046 |
---|---|
Target/Specificity | SLC35D2; At least two isoforms of SLC35D2 are known to exist; this antibody will recognize both isoforms. SLC35D2 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with SLC35D1 or SLC35D3. |
Reconstitution & Storage | SLC35D2 antibody can be stored at 4℃ for three months and -20℃, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures. |
Precautions | SLC35D2 Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | SLC35D2 (HGNC:20799) |
---|---|
Function | Nucleotide sugar antiporter transporting UDP-N- acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) and UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) from the cytosol into the lumen of the Golgi in exchange of UMP. By supplying UDP-N-acetylglucosamine, a donor substrate to heparan sulfate synthases, probably takes part in the synthesis of these glycoconjugates. |
Cellular Location | Golgi apparatus membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in heart, kidney, small intestine, placenta, lung and peripheral blood leukocyte. Weakly expressed in skeletal muscle and spleen. Not expressed in brain, colon and thymus |

Background
SLC35D2 Antibody: The solute carrier family SLC35 consists of at least 17 proteins that act as nucleotide sugar transporters localized to the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum. The role of the ER-resident SLC family member SLC35D2 is to transport both UDP-glucuronic acid and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine. Its overexpression in transfected cells modulated cell surface heparin sulfate expression, suggesting that SLC35D2 is involved in heparin sulfate synthesis. SLC35D2-overexpressing cells also showed increased constitutive and hypotonic stress-stimulated release of UDP-GlcNAc, suggesting that SLC35D2 may be involved in UDP-sugar release and cell signaling.
