Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-uncarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC) [Fab-13]
  • Alternate names: Uncarboxylated osteocalcin, uc-Osteocalcin, uc-OC, bone gamma-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein, BGLAP
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary Antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Cancer type: Genitourinary cancer
  • Application: IF ; Fn
  • Description: Osteocalcin, also known as bone gamma-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein (BGLAP), is a small (49-amino-acid) noncollagenous protein hormone found in bone and dentin. Osteocalcin is a bone-specific protein which contains three glutamic acid residues (Glu) that undergo post-translational gamma-carboxylation. Uncarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC) may participate in the regulation of glucose metabolism, thus measurement of ucOC could be useful in evaluating interactions between bone and glucose metabolism.
  • Immunogen: Human full-length ucOC peptide (149, Glu at positions 17, 21 and 24; C23C29 bridge)
  • Isotype: IgG1 kappa
  • Research area: Disease (not cancer); Metabolism

  • For Research Use Only

Target Details
