Anti-UGCG Antibody

Raised in rabbits, this unconjugated polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets UGCG (UDP-glucose ceramide glucosyltransferase), the enzyme that catalyzes the first glycosylation step of glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. Each vial contains 100 µL of antiserum suited to western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows on human specimens.

Also referred to as glucosylceramide synthase, UGCG has been studied in cancer multidrug-resistance research and in metabolic disease models, where altered sphingolipid metabolism plays a documented role. The polyclonal format broadens epitope coverage, which can aid detection of endogenous protein in tissue lysates and fixed sections where post-translational modification patterns vary.

Aliquot the reagent upon receipt, store working portions at -20 °C, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to preserve binding activity. The product is supplied for research use only and is not validated for diagnostic or therapeutic applications.
