Anti-LOXL4 antibody produced in rabbit

产品说明

一般描述

Lysyl oxidase like 4 (LOXL4) is a copper-dependent amine oxidase and the LOXL4 gene is mapped to human chromosome 10q24.2. It is expressed in the pancreas and testes. LOXL4 comprises an N-terminal signal peptide and four scavenger receptor domains.

应用

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

生化/生理作用

Lysyl oxidase like 4 (LOXL4) scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) regions are critical for interaction with ligands. LOXL4 is implicated in particular with the head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) as well as with diverse cancer types. However, LOXL4 gene displays low expression in liver and bladder cancer. LOXL4 protein is crucial for extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis and mediates the oxidative deamination in proteins like collagen and elastin at their lysine residues. Its expression levels also modulate the ECM remodeling. Studies have highlighted elevated expression of LOXL4 in liver cancer.

特点和优势

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
