Description | Polyclonal Antibody to detect PCSK9 in human samples. Background: Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), is an enzyme which in humans is encoded by the PCSK9 gene. This gene encodes a proprotein convertase belonging to the proteinase K subfamily of the secretory subtilase family. This protein plays a major regulatory role in cholesterol homeostasis. PCSK9 binds to the epidermal growth factor-like repeat A (EGF-A) domain of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), inducing LDLR degradation. PCSK9 may also have a role in the differentiation of cortical neurons. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a rare form of autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia (HCHOLA3). |
Immunogen | Immunogen: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminal (671-687aa AVTAVAICCRSRHLAQA) of human PCSK9. Positive Control: Western blot: A549, HeLa, U87, PANC Cell Lysate. IHC-P: Human Intestinal Cancer Tissue. |
