Immunofluorescence (IF)

(Immunofluorescent analysis of Dermcidin staining in MCF7 cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight 594-conjugated secondary antibody (red) in PBS at room temperature in the dark.)

NCBI Description

This antimicrobial gene encodes a secreted protein that is subsequently processed into mature peptides of distinct biological activities. The C-terminal peptide is constitutively expressed in sweat and has antibacterial and antifungal activities. The N-terminal peptide, also known as diffusible survival evasion peptide, promotes neural cell survival under conditions of severe oxidative stress. A glycosylated form of the N-terminal peptide may be associated with cachexia (muscle wasting) in cancer patients. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

Uniprot Description

DCD: DCD-1 displays antimicrobial activity thereby limiting skin infection by potential pathogens in the first few hours after bacterial colonization. Highly effective against E.coli, E.faecalis, S.aureus and C.albicans. Optimal pH and salt concentration resemble the conditions in sweat. Also exhibits proteolytic activity. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Secreted, signal peptide; EC 3.4.-.-; Secreted

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13.1

Cellular Component: extracellular region; extracellular space

Molecular Function: peptidase activity; protein binding

Biological Process: defense response to bacterium; defense response to fungus; killing of cells of another organism; proteolysis

Product Notes

The DCD dcd (Catalog #AAA8245311) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Dermcidin Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Dermcidin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunocytochemistry (ICC). WB: 1/500 - 1/2000; IF/ICC: 1/50 - 1/100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DCD dcd for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Dermcidin, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
