Scientific Data Images for Human alpha ‑Galactosidase A/GLA Antibody

Detection of Human alpha ‑Galactosidase A/GLA by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of A549 human lung carcinoma cell line, MCF‑7 human breast cancer cell line and NCI‑H460 human large cell lung carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human alpha ‑Galactosidase A/GLA Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB61462) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF008). A specific band was detected for alpha ‑Galactosidase A/GLA at approximately 45 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.

Background: alpha-Galactosidase A/GLA

Human alpha -Galactosidase A is a homodimeric glycoprotein that can release terminal alpha -galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins and catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose (1). It is a lysosomal enzyme and is responsible for degradation of glycolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) (Gal alpha 1‑4Gal beta 1‑4Glc beta ‑ceramide). Mutations in this gene cause Fabry disease, an X-linked hereditary lysosomal storage disease with the accumulation of Gb3 in the walls of small blood vessels, nerves, dorsal root ganglia, renal glomerular and tubular epithelial cells, and cardiomyocytes (2, 3). Inability to prevent the glycosphingolipid deposition can cause hypertension, strokes, heart attack and progressive renal failure (4). Current treatment for Fabry disease is enzyme replacement therapy using intravenously delivered recombinant alpha -Galactosidase A (5, 6).
