Scientific Data Images for Human FAM20B Antibody

FAM20B antibody in Human Brain (Cortex) by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

FAM20B in Human Brain (Cortex).

FAM20B was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain (cortex) using Mouse Anti-Human FAM20B Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB84271) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # CTS013). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to neurons.

Background: FAM20B

FAM20B is a member of the FAM20 protein family that has three members in mammals (FAM20A, FAM20B, FAM20C) (1). Human FAM20B shares 97% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat FAM20B. FAM20B localizes to the Golgi apparatus where it phosphorylates the xylose residue in the glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-protein linkage region of proteoglycans, which leads to enhanced GAG biosynthesis (2). Accordingly, chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate production is increased when FAM20B is over-expressed and reduced following FAM20B knockdown (2). FAM20B knockout mice display embryonic lethality at day E13.5, suggesting that FAM20B has an important role during development (3). Furthermore, in zebrafish, FAM20B mutations result in reduced cartilage matrix production and skeletal defects (4). The enzymatic activity of recombinant human FAM20B is measured using a phosphatase-coupled method (5).
