Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects testican-3 (gene SPOCK3) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 49.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 57 kDa.
Testican-3 (SPOCK3) is a secreted proteoglycan of the testican family expressed in the nervous system. It can block activation of pro-MMP-2 by membrane-type metalloproteinases and may take part in neurogenesis.
