Anti-O-GlcNAc Transferase (TI-14) antibody produced in rabbit

O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) catalyzes the addition of an N-acetylglucosamine residue to the amino acids serine or threonine. The enzyme is an homotrimer consisting of three subunits of 110 kDa each, with multiple tetratricopeptide (TPR) repeats.

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1024-1037 of human O-GlcNAc transferase, conjugated to KLH via an N-terminal added cysteine residue.

O-linked β-N-acetyl glycosamine (O-GlcNAc) is involved in repressing transcription. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) interacts with a histone deacetylase complex by binding to the co repressor Sin3A. This interaction leads to the repression of transcription, after transcription factors and RNA polymerase II are modified by addition of O-GlcNAc. O-GlcNAc modification reversibly inhibits proteosomal function in an ubiquitin-independent fashion.
