Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1) or formylglycine-generating enzyme (FGE) is a 41kDa glycoprotein. It is localized at the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. The protein consists of an amino-terminal domain and a core domain with the active site. The gene encoding SUMF1 is localized on human chromosome 3p26.1 and contains nine exons._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ Peptide with sequence CETLNPKGPPSGKDR, from the internal region of the protein sequence according to NP_877437.2._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Supplied at 0.5 mg/mL in Tris saline with 0.02% sodium azide and 0.5% bovine serum albumin._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1) converts a highly conserved cysteine in the catalytic domain of sulfatase to form C α-formylglycine (FGly) by post-translational modification. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein have been associated with multiple sulfatase deficiency._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ Evaluate our antibodies with complete peace of mind.
