SYNONYMS
B3GAT1, CD57, GLCATP, GLCUATP, HNK1, LEU7, NK-1, NK1, Beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 1, Glucuronosyltransferase P, GlcAT-P, UDP-GlcUA:glycoprotein beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase, GlcUAT-P.
INTRODUCTION
CD57 also called B3GAT1is part of the glucuronyltransferase gene family. CD57 exhibits strict acceptor specificity, recognizing nonreducing terminal sugars and their anomeric linkages. CD57 takes part in the glucuronyl transfer reaction during the biosynthesis of the carbohydrate epitope HNK-1.
DESCRIPTION
CD57 Human Recombinant produced in Baculovirus is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 549 amino acids (28-334aa) and having a molecular mass of 62.3kDa.
CD57 is fused to a 242 amino acid hIgG-His-Tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
