The bifunctional nature of the enzyme has the important metabolic consequence that mutant cells (or individuals) are dependent not only on exogenous galactose, but also on exogenous N-acetylgalactosamine as a necessary precursor for the synthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids. Mutations in this gene result in epimerase-deficiency galactosemia, also referred to as galactosemia type 3, a disease characterized by liver damage, early-onset cataracts, deafness and mental retardation, with symptoms ranging from mild ('peripheral' form) to severe ('generalized' form). Multiple alternatively spliced transcripts encoding the same protein have been identified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eImmunogen\u003c\/b\u003e:UDP-galactose-4-epimerase\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSynonyms\u003c\/b\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eObserved MW\u003c\/b\u003e:36 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUniprot ID\u003c\/b\u003e:Q14376\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReactivity\u003c\/b\u003e:Human, Mouse, Rat\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTested Application\u003c\/b\u003e:ELISA, WB, IHC, IF\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended dilution\u003c\/b\u003e:WB: 1:500 - 1:2000; IHC: 1:50 - 1:200; IF: 1:10 - 1:100\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGene ID\u003c\/b\u003e:2582\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eResearch Area\u003c\/b\u003e:Metabolism\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gene Bio Systems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40499546980452,"sku":"FNab03309","price":564.41,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/8588\/9636\/products\/no_image_default_image-jpeg_a49e0dc9-062e-4c1c-8ccd-87e899bfb448.jpg?v=1660502744","url":"https:\/\/www.genebiosystems.com\/products\/gale-antibody-cat-fnab03309","provider":"GeneBio ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
