Scientific Data Images for Human MFNG Antibody

Detection of Human MFNG antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human MFNG by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of human pancreas tissue. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human MFNG Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF6355) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for MFNG at approximately 55 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Background: MFNG

MFNG (Manic fringe N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase; also O-fucosylpeptide 3-beta -N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) is a 52 - 55 kDa member of the glucosyltransferase 31 family. It is a Golgi membrane protein that transfers N-acetylglucosamine to an O-linked fucose residue on Notch. Activity on Notch increases Delta-1 induced signaling while suppressing Jagged-1 signaling. MFNG is found in fetal pancreatic endocrine progenitor cells and immature ventricular zone neurons. Human MFNG is a 321 amino acid (aa) type II transmembrane protein. It contains a short 7 aa cytoplasmic region, plus a 294 aa luminal domain (aa 28-321). There are two potential splice variants, one that shows a 15 aa substitution for aa 104-321, and another that contains a three aa substitution for aa 86-102. Over aa 37-321, human MFNG shares 85% aa identity with mouse MFNG.
