Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets dickkopf-related protein 1 (gene Dkk1) in mouse and rat samples and is validated for IHC and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 29.3 kDa.
Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is a secreted inhibitor of canonical Wnt signaling. It binds the Wnt co-receptors LRP5/6 and, together with Kremen proteins, promotes their removal from the cell surface. DKK1 is studied in embryonic head and limb development, bone formation and cancer, where it is often used as a Wnt pathway readout.

Validated Applications
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): mouse brain tissue, mouse spleen tissue, rat brain tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Recombinant mouse Dkk1 fragment (Asn73–His272), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with mouse and rat. UniProt describes dickkopf-related protein 1 as a secreted protein.
