Mouse Dickkopf-Related Protein 4 (DKK4) ELISA Kit | DKK4 elisa kit
Mouse Dickkopf-Related Protein 4 (DKK4) ELISA Kit
* Allow all reagents to warm to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before opening.
* Pre-rinse the pipet tip with reagent, use fresh pipet tips for each sample, standard and reagent to avoid contamination.
* Unused wells must be kept desiccated at 4 degree C in the sealed bag provided.
* Mix Thoroughly is very important for the result. It is recommended using low frequency oscillator or slight hand shaking every 10 minutes.
* It is recommended that all samples and standards be assayed in duplicate or triplicate.
Background: All DKKs have several potential sites for cleavage by furin-type proteases. Northern blot analysis detected no expression of DKK4, but RT-PCR analysis detected DKK4 expression in cerebellum, T-cell, esophagus, and lung cDNA libraries. Western blot analysis showed that DKK4 is secreted as 40-, 30- to 32-, and 15- to 17-kD proteins; these proteins were not significantly affected by N-glycanase treatment. N-terminal sequence analysis of the different forms suggested that DKK4 is proteolytically processed, possibly by intracellular furin-type proteases. Functional analysis determined that DKK4 blocks Xenopus Wnt8, Wnt3a, and Wnt2b, but not Dsh or Fz8, induction of a secondary axis in frog embryos, indicating that DKKs antagonize WNT function upstream of WNT receptors.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
DKK4: 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. Belongs to the dickkopf family.
Protein type: Inhibitor; Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8|8 A2

Product Notes
The Mouse DKK4 dkk4 (Catalog #AAA9717871) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9717871 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse DKK4. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Dickkopf-Related Protein 4 (DKK4), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
