General description

PORCN is a multi-pass endoplasmic reticulum protein involved in the processing of wingless and other Wnt proteins that facilitate their secretion from Wnt-producing cells. Studies have shown mutations in the genes that encode for PORCN cause a pleiotropic X-linked dominant disorder, focal dermal hypolasia (FDH, also known as Goltz syndrome). Skeletal abnormalities such as syndactyly, ectordactyly, and brachydactyly, and some cases of osteopathia striata have also been attibuted to PORCN abnormalities.

Immunogen

Linear peptide corresponding to human PORCN.

Application

Anti-PORCN Antibody, clone 15G12.1 is an antibody against PORCN for use in WB & IC.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:500 dilution from a representative lot detected PORCN in HeLa and A431 cells.
Research Category
Signaling
Research Sub Category
Developmental Signaling

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in mouse brain tissue lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected PORCN in 10 µg of mouse brain tissue lysate.

Target description

~62 kDa observed.
Calculated molecular weight of 52 kDa The actual MW should be observed at ~45-65 kDa Helical membrane protein migration on SDS-PAGE may not exactly correlate with the calculated molecular weights (PNAS, 2009, 106:1760-1765).

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second-leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and the factors influencing HCC progression are poorly understood. Here we reveal that HCC progression via induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is closely associated with the expression of CD36/fatty

Our understanding of dynamic interactions between airway basal stem cells (ABSCs) and their signaling niches in homeostasis, injury, and aging remains elusive. Using transgenic mice and pharmacologic studies, we found that Wnt/β-catenin within ABSCs was essential for proliferation post-injury in vivo.
