Der Kaninchen Polyklonal anti-CUBN Antikörper wird verwendet zum Nachweis von CUBN in Proben von Human, Ratte und Maus. Er wurde validiert für WB, IHC und IF.
Cubilin is an endocytic receptor that lacks a classical transmembrane region. It is a multidomain receptor that contains an amino terminal 110 residue segment followed by 8 epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats and a contiguous stretch of 27 CUB domains. Cubilin acts as a receptor for intrinsic factor-vitamin B12 complexes. Cubilin is located within the epithelium of intestine and kidney. Mutations in Cubilin may play a role in autosomal recessive megaloblastic anemia also known as Imerslund-Grasbeck's disease, which causes intestinal malabsorption of vitamin B12.
