Biotin Rabbit anti-Dog DKK1 Polyclonal Antibody, Biotin Conjugated [IgG]

SK; DKK-1; Dickkopf-related protein 1; Dickkopf-1; hDkk-1; DKK1; UNQ492/PRO18

Antagonizes canonical Wnt signaling by inhibiting LRP5/6 interaction with Wnt and by forming a ternary complex with the transmembrane protein KREMEN that promotes internalization of LRP5/6. DKKs play an important role in vertebrate development, where they locally inhibit Wnt regulated processes such as antero-posterior axial patterning, limb development, somitogenesis and eye formation. In the adult, Dkks are implicated in bone formation and bone disease, cancer and Alzheimer disease.
