Product details

The Antibody Pair can be used to quantify Human/Mouse MGEA5/OGA. BSA and Azide free antibody pairs include unconjugated capture and detector antibodies suitable for sandwich ELISAs. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Both capture and detector antibodies are rabbit monoclonal antibodies delivering consistent, specific, and sensitive results.

For additional information on the performance of the antibody pair, see the equivalent SimpleStep ELISA® Kit (ab269546), which uses the same antibodies. However, due to differences in their formulation, this antibody pair cannot be used with the consumables provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kits. Please note that the range provided for the pairs is only an estimation based on the performance of the related product using the same antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody pair in your assay.

MGEA5 also referred to as OGA or O-GlcNAcase serves an important mechanical role in cellular metabolism. This enzyme with a molecular mass of around 103 kDa is primarily involved in the removal of O-GlcNAc modifications from serine/threonine residues on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins. It is expressed in various tissues but exhibits predominant activity in the brain liver and pancreas. Alternative names like "OGA stains" or "OGA b" may also be encountered in literature or research contexts.
Biological function summary

MGEA5 acts as an important modulator of protein function and regulation by cycling O-GlcNAc modifications thereby influencing processes like transcription signal transduction and apoptosis. While not part of a well-defined complex it frequently interacts with other proteins involved in glucose metabolism and the cellular stress response. Its activity works in concert with OGT (O-GlcNAc transferase) which adds O-GlcNAc maintaining a balance important for cellular function.

Pathways

MGEA5 involvement centers largely around glucose homeostasis and the insulin signaling pathway. It modulates the function of proteins like insulin receptor substrate (IRS) and other key regulators in this pathway affecting metabolic regulation and energy homeostasis. It shows a direct relationship with OGT as they reciprocate in action effects highlighting their collaborative role in cellular pathways that affect cellular signaling and survival.

MGEA5 has been implicated in neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes. In Alzheimer's disease altered O-GlcNAc cycling affects tau protein homeostasis which is significant in disease pathogenesis. Likewise in diabetes MGEA5 influences insulin resistance by regulating O-GlcNAc levels on insulin signaling molecules. Dysregulation of these processes may also involve proteins such as beta-amyloid further linking MGEA5 to these pathological states.

Target data

Isoform 1. Cleaves GlcNAc but not GalNAc from O-glycosylated proteins (PubMed : 11148210, PubMed : 11788610, PubMed : 20673219, PubMed : 22365600, PubMed : 24088714, PubMed : 28939839, PubMed : 37962578). Deglycosylates a large and diverse number of proteins, such as CRYAB, ELK1, GSDMD, LMNB1 and TAB1 (PubMed : 28939839, PubMed : 37962578). Can use p-nitrophenyl-beta-GlcNAc and 4-methylumbelliferone-GlcNAc as substrates but not p-nitrophenyl-beta-GalNAc or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-GlcNAc (in vitro) (PubMed : 20673219). Does not bind acetyl-CoA and does not have histone acetyltransferase activity (PubMed : 24088714).. Isoform 3. Cleaves GlcNAc but not GalNAc from O-glycosylated proteins. Can use p-nitrophenyl-beta-GlcNAc as substrate but not p-nitrophenyl-beta-GalNAc or p-nitrophenyl-alpha-GlcNAc (in vitro), but has about six times lower specific activity than isoform 1.
