GlycoFlux™ Human GYG2 Overexpression Jurkat Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0925-JF755)

Description	GlycoFlux™ human GYG2 overexpression Jurkat cell line is a stable cell line overexpressing glycogenin 2 (GYG2), a liver-predominant glycogenin that catalyzes the initial self-glucosylation step in glycogen biosynthesis. Its X-linked nature links it to sex-specific glycogen regulation. This model supports studies of hepatic glycogen storage, glucose homeostasis, and glycosyltransferase-related regulation in immune cells.

Gene ID	8908
Summary	This gene encodes a member of the the glycogenin family. Glycogenin is a self-glucosylating protein involved in the initiation reactions of glycogen biosynthesis. A gene on chromosome 3 encodes the muscle glycogenin and this X-linked gene encodes the glycogenin mainly present in liver; both are involved in blood glucose homeostasis. This gene has a short version on chromosome Y, which is 3' truncated and can not make a functional protein. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
