Recombinant Mouse Galt Protein, Myc/DDK-tagged

• Cat.No.: Galt-3146M
• Product Overview: Purified recombinant protein of mouse full-length galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (Galt), with C-terminal MYC/DDK tag, expressed in HEK293T cells.

Specification

• Description: The protein encoded by this gene is the second enzyme in the Leloir pathway, the metabolic pathway for D-galactose catabolism. It catalyzes the conversion of galactose-1-phosphate and uridine diphosphate-glucose to glucose-1-phosphate and uridine diphosphate galactose. Deficiency of this enzyme causes the genetic metabolic disorder galactosemia. Mice lacking this protein accumulate high levels of galactose and galactose-1 phosphate but are viable and fertile. This protein is negatively regulated through signaling by the polypeptide hormone prolactin, specifically via the short isoform of the prolactin receptor and the transcription factor Forkhead box O3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
