Alternative Names: Dickkopf (Xenopus Laevis) Homolog 1, Dickkopf 1 Homolog, Dickkopf-1, Dickkopf-1 Like, Dickkopf-Like Protein 1, Dickkopf WNT signaling pathway inhibitor 1, Dickkopf-related protein 1, DKK-1, DKK1, hDkk-1, SK

DKK1 is a protein that acts against canonical Wnt signaling. It does this by preventing the interaction between LRP5/6 and Wnt, and by creating a complex with the transmembrane protein KREMEN, which leads to the internalization of LRP5/6. DKKs play a crucial role in vertebrate development, inhibiting Wnt-regulated processes such as axial patterning, limb development, somitogenesis, and eye formation. Additionally, Dkks are also involved in bone formation, bone disease, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease in adults.

Product Description

Recombinant Human Dickkopf-Related Protein 1 (Dkk-1) is a secreted glycoprotein that belongs to the Dickkopf family. It plays a significant role in the regulation of Wnt signaling pathway, which is crucial for embryonic development and tissue homeostasis. With a molecular weight of approximately 34 kDa, this protein acts as an antagonist of the Wnt signaling pathway by binding to low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5/6 (LRP5/6) co-receptors, thereby inhibiting the interaction between Wnt ligands and Frizzled receptors. The inhibition of Wnt signaling by Dkk-1 has been implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, making it a subject of interest in biomedical research.

Product Guarantee

If your product is within its expiration period, and has not performed according to expectations, fill out the sample return form. Return the unused sample frozen, with the auto generated packing slip to the address on the instructions. You will receive a full refund along with a replacement of the unused portion (inclusive of the failed test). Damages do not cover any additional costs incurred for failed experimentation.

Storage Instruction

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
