Product Name :
Opticin Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Opticin, also known as OPTC or OPT, is a 332 amino acid protein that is secreted into the extracellular matrix and contains seven LRR repeats. Expressed in skin and fetal liver and also present in ocular tissues, such as the retina, cornea and iris, opticin functions to bind collagen fibrils and, via this interaction, is thought to regulate fibril spacing, morphology and organization. Opticin is subject to post-translational O-glycosylation and may be associated with the pathogenesis of primary open angle glaucoma. Alternative Name :
Oculoglycan; OPTC; OPT Swiss-Prot :
Q9UBM4 Product :
1 mg/ml in DI water. Purification&Purity :
Synthetic peptide Opticin. (Note: the amino acid sequence is proprietary). The purity is > 98%. Storage&Stability :
Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Specificity :
This peptide can be used with studies using BS60333 Opticin pAb.
