The PCSK9 Polyclonal Antibody (CAB24478) is a high-quality antibody developed for reliable detection and analysis of target proteins. This antibody, produced in rabbits, shows high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blotting applications.PCSK9 is a key player in the regulation of LDL receptor levels, ultimately impacting the amount of LDL cholesterol that is cleared from the bloodstream. Dysregulation of PCSK9 has been linked to hypercholesterolemia and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. By targeting PCSK9, researchers have the potential to develop therapies aimed at lowering cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of heart disease.
This antibody is validated for use in WB, IF/ICC, IP, ELISA applications and has demonstrated reactivity against Human, Rat samples.

Recombinant protein (or fragment).This information is considered to be commercially sensitive.
This gene encodes a member of the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, which includes proteases that process protein and peptide precursors trafficking through regulated or constitutive branches of the secretory pathway. The encoded protein undergoes an autocatalytic processing event with its prosegment in the ER and is constitutively secreted as an inactive protease into the extracellular matrix and trans-Golgi network. It is expressed in liver, intestine and kidney tissues and escorts specific receptors for lysosomal degradation. It plays a role in cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
