The EPPK1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC026521) is a valuable tool for researchers studying EPPK1, a protein involved in various cellular processes including cell proliferation and differentiation. This antibody, produced in rabbits, demonstrates high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding specifically to the EPPK1 protein, researchers can accurately detect and analyze its expression in different cell types, making it an ideal choice for studies in cell biology and cancer research.EPPK1, also known as epithelial keratinization protein 1, plays a crucial role in regulating keratinocyte differentiation and epidermal development.
Its involvement in these processes highlights its importance as a potential target for investigation in skin disorders and cancer progression. Understanding the function of EPPK1 is essential for developing therapies that target this protein for the treatment of skin diseases and cancers. In summary, the EPPK1 Polyclonal Antibody is a reliable tool for researchers interested in investigating the role of EPPK1 in cellular processes and disease development. Its high specificity and sensitivity make it an essential component in any research project involving EPPK1.

NCBI Summary:
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the plakin family of proteins, which play a role in the organization of cytoskeletal architecture. This family member is composed of several highly homologous plakin repeats. It may function to maintain the integrity of keratin intermediate filament networks in epithelial cells. Studies of the orthologous mouse protein suggest that it accelerates keratinocyte migration during wound healing. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013]
