Anti-TSTA3 Antibody, clone 2N10-H1 ZooMAb^® Rabbit Monoclonal

GDP-L-fucose synthase (UniProt: Q13630; also known as EC:1.1.1.271, GDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-mannose-3,5-epimerase-4-reductase, Protein FX, Red cell NADP(H)-binding protein, Short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family 4E member 1) is encoded by the GFUS (also known as SDR4E1, TSTA3) gene (Gene ID: 7264) in human. In mammals, fucosylated glycans play important roles in ABO blood group antigens, host-microbe interactions, and several human diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, pancreatic cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. GDP-L-fucose synthase is a homodimeric protein of the NAD(P)-dependent epimerase/dehydratase family that is responsible for the last step of the major metabolic pathway resulting in GDP-L-fucose synthesis from GDP-D-mannose. It catalyzes a combined epimerase and NADPH-dependent reductase reaction, converting GDP-4-keto-6-D-deoxymannose to GDP-L-fucose. This reaction involves epimerization at both C-3 and C-5 followed by an NADPH-dependent reduction of the carbonyl at C-4. GDP-L-fucose synthase is also reported to act as the main autoantigen for a brain-infiltrating T cell clone. It is recognized by cerebrospinal fluid-infiltrating CD4+ T cells from HLA-DRB3*-positive subjects. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
