L-dopachrome tautomerase Antibodies

AND DCT ELISA kits, L-dopachrome tautomerase Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect L-dopachrome tautomerase, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with L-dopachrome tautomerase in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop L-dopachrome tautomerase antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to L-dopachrome tautomerase by testing them on tissues known to express DCT positively and negatively. Browse below to find the DCT antibody that suites your experiment. We have 5 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

DCT Overview

Facts about L-dopachrome tautomerase.

DCT 3D structure. Source: alphafold

L-dopachrome tautomerase (DCT)

Catalyzes the conversion of L-dopachrome into 5,6- dihydroxyindole-2-carboxylic acid (DHICA) (PubMed:8306979). Involved in regulating eumelanin and phaeomelanin levels.
