The ERGIC1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC038914) is a reliable tool for researchers studying ERGIC1, a key protein involved in protein trafficking and localization within the cell's endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC). This antibody, produced in rabbits, exhibits high specificity and sensitivity towards human ERGIC1 samples, making it suitable for various applications such as Western blotting.ERGIC1 plays a vital role in maintaining the proper function of the secretory pathway and protein transport within the cell. Dysregulation of ERGIC1 has been implicated in various diseases related to protein misfolding and trafficking defects, including neurodegenerative disorders and metabolic syndromes.
By using the ERGIC1 Polyclonal Antibody, researchers can explore the mechanisms underlying these pathological conditions and potentially develop targeted therapies for them.This antibody's ability to target ERGIC1 protein opens up opportunities for studying protein trafficking dynamics, organelle interactions, and intracellular signaling pathways. With its high specificity and sensitivity, the ERGIC1 Polyclonal Antibody is a valuable tool for advancing research in cell biology, neurology, and metabolic diseases.
