This is a synthetic peptide designed for use in combination with anti-ChGn antibody (Catalog #: ARP47435_P050). It may block above mentioned antibody from binding to its target protein in western blot and/or immunohistochecmistry under proper experimental settings. There is no guarantee for its use in other applications.
ChGn transfers 1,4-N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) from UDP-GalNAc to the non-reducing end of glucuronic acid (GlcUA). This protein is required for addition of the first GalNAc to the core tetrasaccharide linker and for elongation of chondroitin chains. It play an important role in chondroitin chain biosynthesis in cartilage.
