Background of Glucose Transporter GLUT8
Solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member 8, also known as SLC2A8, is the eighth member of glucose transporter superfamily. It is characterized by the presence of two leucine residues in its N-terminal intracellular domain, which influences intracellular trafficking. This gene is mapped to 9q33.3. Based on sequence comparison, the glucose transporters are grouped into three classes and this gene is a member of class II. It may act as the insulin-regulated facilitative glucose transporter. This gene binds cytochalasin B in a glucose-inhibitable manner. The binds seems to be a dual-specific sugar transporter as it is inhibitable by fructose.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Question
Will anti-Glucose Transporter 8/SLC2A8 antibody PA2165 work on dog WB with skin?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-02-24
Answer
Our lab technicians have not validated anti-Glucose Transporter 8/SLC2A8 antibody PA2165 on dog. You can run a BLAST between dog and the immunogen sequence of anti-Glucose Transporter 8/SLC2A8 antibody PA2165 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated dog samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in dog skin in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.

Asked: 2018-07-12
Answer
The immunogen of PA2165 anti-Glucose Transporter 8/SLC2A8 antibody is A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of mouse Glucose Transporter 8(461-477aa ETKGRTLEQVTAHFEGR), different from the related rat sequence by one amino acid, and from the related human sequence by two amino acids. Could you tell me which isotype you are interested in so I can help see if the immunogen is part of this isotype?
