Porcn Antibodies

AND Porcn ELISA kits, Porcn Proteins

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

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Porcn by testing them on tissues known to express Porcn positively and negatively. Browse below to find the Porcn antibody that suites your experiment. We have 2 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.

Porcn Overview

Facts about Protein-serine O-palmitoleoyltransferase porcupine.

Protein-serine O-palmitoleoyltransferase porcupine (Porcn)

Protein-serine O-palmitoleoyltransferase that serves as a key regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating the attachment of palmitoleate, a 16-carbon monounsaturated fatty acid (C16:1), to Wnt proteins. Serine palmitoleylation of WNT proteins is required for efficient binding to frizzled receptors.
