SCA1 Antibody

Additional Information:
|Background SCA1 (Stem cell antigen-1), also known as Ly6A/E, is a member of the Ly6 multigene family of type V glycophosphatidylinositol anchored cell surface proteins. It is a glycosylphosphotidylinositol-anchored protein that identifies many tissue progenitor cells. Epting CL et al identified Sca-1 as a marker of myogenic precursor cells and subsequently demonstrated that Sca-1 regulates proliferation of activated myoblasts, suggesting an important role for Sca-1 in skeletal muscle homeostasis. And Bradfute SB et al experimental data indicate that Sca-1 plays a role in hematopoietic progenitor/stem cell lineage fate and c-kit expression. In addition, mouse Sca-1 overexpression affects human as well as mouse stem/progenitor cell activity, suggesting the possibility of a functional human Sca-1 homologue. | SCA1 Polyclonal Antibody Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody.
