The Spock1 Monoclonal Antibody (PAC046618) is a cutting-edge tool for researchers studying Spock1, a protein involved in extracellular matrix remodeling and cell adhesion. This antibody, produced in mice, shows high specificity for Spock1 in human samples and is validated for use in immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry applications. By detecting and quantifying Spock1 expression, researchers can further explore its role in processes such as tissue development, wound healing, and cancer metastasis.
Spock1, a member of the Spock family of proteoglycans, is known for its ability to modify the extracellular matrix, which is essential for cell migration, differentiation, and signaling. Dysregulation of Spock1 has been linked to various pathological conditions, making it a promising target for therapeutic interventions. Investigating the functions and mechanisms of Spock1 could lead to novel treatments for diseases affecting tissue structure and function.

NCBI Summary:
This gene encodes the protein core of a seminal plasma proteoglycan containing chondroitin- and heparan-sulfate chains. The protein's function is unknown, although similarity to thyropin-type cysteine protease-inhibitors suggests its function may be related to protease inhibition. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
