The Galactosidase alpha (GLA) Antibody (CAB1700) is a high-quality antibody developed for reliable detection and analysis of target proteins. This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding specifically to the GLA protein, researchers can accurately detect and analyze its expression in a variety of cell types.GLA, also known as alpha-galactosidase A, is essential for the breakdown of a specific type of lipid molecule called globotriaosylceramide. Deficiencies in GLA enzyme activity have been linked to Fabry disease, a rare genetic disorder characterized by the buildup of these lipid molecules in various tissues throughout the body.
This antibody is validated for use in WB, IF/ICC, ELISA applications and has demonstrated reactivity against Human, Mouse samples.

This gene encodes a homodimeric glycoprotein that hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. This enzyme predominantly hydrolyzes ceramide trihexoside, and it can catalyze the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. A variety of mutations in this gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease, a rare lysosomal storage disorder that results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties.
