GlycoErase™ MGAM Knockout HEK293 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF420)

Description	GlycoErase™ MGAM knockout HEK293 cell line is a HEK293 model lacking MGAM expression. MGAM encodes maltase-glucoamylase, a brush border enzyme that hydrolyzes starch in the final stages of digestion. The knockout model provides a human cellular platform for investigating carbohydrate digestion, nutrient absorption, and glycosidase activity, with relevance to metabolic and digestive health research.

Target	MGAM
Full Name	Maltase-Glucoamylase
Alternative Name	MG; MGA
Location	7q34
Gene ID	8972
Summary	Maltase-glucoamylase, encoded by this gene, functions in starch digestion at the brush border membrane. It contains two catalytic domains similar to those of sucrase-isomaltase but shares only 59% sequence homology. Both belong to glycosyl hydrolase family 31.
