Anti-CHST1 Antibody

Carbohydrate sulfotransferase 1 (CHST1) catalyzes the transfer of sulfate from PAPS to the C-6 position of N-acetylgalactosamine residues on glycoproteins and glycolipids, making it a relevant marker for studies of sulfation pathways. This unconjugated rabbit polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is raised against CHST1 and validated for Western blot detection in human, mouse, and rat samples. The antibody is supplied as 100 µl of a 1 mg/ml stock in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 0.05% sodium azide at approximately pH 7.2, ready to dilute into standard blocking and incubation buffers. The polyclonal format allows recognition of multiple epitopes across the target protein, which is useful when probing endogenous expression levels in tissue lysates or cultured cell extracts. Researchers studying glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, extracellular matrix composition, and chondroitin or keratan sulfate metabolism can use this reagent to compare CHST1 expression across species. Aliquot upon receipt to limit repeated freeze-thaw cycles and protect from prolonged light exposure to preserve activity.
