Invitrogen™ PCSK5 Polyclonal Antibody

Description

PCSK5 Polyclonal Antibody for Western Blot, ICC/IF, IHC (P)

PCSK5 belongs to the subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family. The members of this family are proprotein convertases that process latent precursor proteins into their biologically active products. PCSK5 mediates posttranslational endoproteolytic processing for several integrin alpha subunits. It is thought to process prorenin, pro-membrane type-1 matrix metalloproteinase and HIV-1 glycoprotein gp160. Two alternatively spliced transcripts are described for this gene but only one has its full length nature known.
