DCT Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (CAB16041)

The DCT Polyclonal Antibody (CAB16041) is a valuable tool for research involving DCT, a key enzyme involved in melanin biosynthesis. This antibody, raised in rabbits, is highly specific and reacts well with human samples, making it suitable for various applications such as Western blot and immunohistochemistry.DCT, also known as dopachrome tautomerase, plays a crucial role in the melanogenesis pathway by catalyzing the conversion of dopachrome to dihydroxyindole carboxylic acid (DHICA). This process is essential for the production of eumelanin, the dark pigment responsible for determining skin, hair, and eye color.

Research on DCT is particularly relevant in the fields of dermatology, pigmentation disorders, and cancer biology. Understanding the regulation and function of DCT can provide insights into melanin production, skin pigmentation, and potential therapeutic targets for conditions such as melanoma.By utilizing the DCT Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can accurately detect and analyze DCT expression in various cell types and tissues, advancing our understanding of melanin biosynthesis and its implications in health and disease.
