Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Wnt1, identical to the related mouse and rat sequences.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 45 kDa; calculated MW: 40982 MW
- Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
Proto-oncogene Wnt-1; Proto-oncogene Wnt-1. Wingless-type MMIV integration site family, member 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the WNT1 gene. This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. The gene was assigned to human chromosome 12q13.12. The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genes that encode secreted signaling proteins. The Wnt1 protein functions in the induction of the mesencephalon and cerebellum. However, the gene mutations might not have a significant role in Joubert syndrome. Functional note: Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors. In some developmental processes, is also a ligand for the coreceptor RYK, thus triggering Wnt signaling. Probable developmental protein. May be a signaling molecule important in CNS development. Is likely to signal over only few cell diameters. Has a role in osteoblast function and bone development. . Reported localization: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix. Expression/tissue context: Expressed predominantly in the thymus. Also found, to a much lesser extent, in the spleen. .
