DKK1 polyclonal antibody Background :
The Wnt genes are a group of well conserved, cysteine-rich secreted glycoproteins that are required for numerous developmental processes including embryogenesis, asymmetric cell division and central nervous system (CNS) patterning. Wnt association with the seven membrane spanning receptor frizzled activates dishevelled, which downregulates glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) through serine phosphorylation, causing the accumulation of b-catenin and subsequent regulation of developmentally significant Wnt |target genes. The Dickkopf family of secreted inhibitors of Wnt signaling ensures proper morphological development by antagonizing different stages of the Wnt cascade. Dkk-1 (Dickkopf-1) acts upstream of b-catenin and dishevelled to inhibit Wnt signaling. Dkk-1 is a 266-amino acid (human), secreted protein that contains a 31-residue N-terminal signal peptide, 2 cysteine rich domains, and a putative carboxy terminal N-glycosylation site. Human Dkk-1 transcripts are abundantly present in fetal kidney, adult placenta and adult prostate. Putative cis regulatory elements upstream of the Dkk-1 start site include p53, Sp1, MyoD, STAT, Oct-1/2, C/EBP-a, C/EBP-b, GATA-1, GATA-2 and GATA-3. Product :

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
