General description

Wnt-1, also known as Proto-oncogene Wnt-1 or Proto-oncogene Int-1 homolog, was first identified as a proto-oncogene activated by viral insertion in mouse mammary tumors. The Wnt-1 gene encodes a member of a large family of secreted proteins that are cysteine-rich, glycosylated, and poorly soluble. Wnt-1 serves as a ligand for the RYK coreceptor, resulting in Wnt signaling. The Wnt signalling pathway mediates the levels of cytosolic beta-catenin, a multi-functional protein that associates with membrane-bound E-cadherin as well as several DNA-binding proteins, such as members of the TCF/LEF family. Additionally, it serves a ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors and plays a role in development of the central nervous system.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.
