This gene is a member of a gene family that encodes enzymes involved in both the metabolism of glutathione and in the transpeptidation of amino acids. Changes in the activity of gamma-glutamyltransferase may signal preneoplastic or toxic conditions in the liver or kidney. The protein encoded by this gene consists of a heavy and a light chain, and it can interact with CT120, a Plasma membrane-associated protein that is possibly involved in lung carcinogenesis.

Catalog No
L0266
Reactivity
Human, Mouse, Rat
Applications
WB, ELISA
Modification
Cleaved Specific
Source
Polyclonal Rabbit
Dilution
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. ELISA: 1/10000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Gamma-glutamyltransferase 4. AA range:423-472
Specificity
Cleaved-GGT4 HC (T472) Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of fragment of activated GGT4 HC protein resulting from cleavage adjacent to T472.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Western blot analysis of lysates from Jurkat cells, treated with etoposide 25uM 24h, using Gamma-glutamyltransferase 4 (heavy chain,Cleaved-Thr472) Antibody. The lane on the right is blocked with the synthesized peptide.
