XYLT2

SYNONYMS
Xylosyltransferase 2, Peptide O-xylosyltransferase 1, Xylosyltransferase II, XT-II, XylT-II, XYLT2, XT2.

INTRODUCTION
XYLT2 or Xylosyltransferase 2 is an enzyme which is expressed in ubiquitous and is part of the glycosyltransfe-rases family. XYLT2 promotes proteoglycans formation by attaching GAG chains to the substrate protein via transfer of xylose molecule from the donor (nucleoside diphosphate) to the protein’s serine residues. XYLT2 is present in the ER and the cis part of the Golgi, furthermore the protein is released to the extracellular matrix.

DESCRIPTION
XYLT2 Human Recombinant is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 839 amino acids (Gly37-Arg865, luminal domain, isoform 1, natural variant with Thr305) and having a molecular mass of 94.0kDa. XYLT2 is fused to an N-terminal linker (2 extra a.a), C-terminal linker (2 extra a.a) and C-terminal His-tag (6 extra a.a).
