Enhanced Validation-Orthogonal RNAseq Confirmation Immunohistochemistry analysis in human ovary and cerebral cortex tissues using Anti-DCN antibody. Corresponding DCN RNA-seq data are presented for the same tissues.
By Recombinant Expression Western Blotting. Western blot analysis in control (vector only transfected HEK293T lysate) and DCN over-expression lysate (Co-expressed with a C-terminal myc-DDK tag (~3.1 kDa) in mammalian HEK293T cells, LY403339).
Immunohistochemistry Immunohistochemical staining of human cerebral cortex shows low expression as expected.
Immunohistochemistry Immunohistochemical staining of human ovary shows high expression.
Western Blotting Western blot analysis in human cell line U-2197.

| Application: | Anti-DCN antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige . |

| Biochem/physiol Actions: | The protein decorin is encoded by the gene DCN and functions in the regulation of fibrillogenesis. It is involved in the sequestration of growth factors, including transforming growth factor beta-1,2 (TGF-β1, -2), and myostatin. It inhibits receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family of proteins, including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), insulin-like growth factor receptor I (IGF1R) and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR). It also binds to toll-like receptors 2 and 4 and functions in the control of inflammation. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
| General description: | DCN (decorin) gene encodes a small leucine-rich proteoglycan that belongs to the SLRP (small leucine-rich proteoglycan) family. It binds to and decorates collagen I fibers. It contains a 396 amino acid long core domain (decoron) and a curved solenoid fold consisting of several leucine-rich repeats. The decoron interacts with four to six collagen molecules. |
| Immunogen: | Decorin precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST) |
