Rabbit polyclonal antibody to LRP-5/6LDL-related proteins LRP-5 and LRP-6. are members of the LDL receptor superfamily, which were found to be involved in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Mammalian LRP-6 was shown to bind to Wnt-1 and enhance Induced-induced developmental processes in Xenopus embryos. Mice lacking LRP-6 exhibited developmental defects that are similar to those caused by deficiencies in various Want proteins. Recent work also shows that Want proteins induce the binding of LRP-5 to Axin, leading Axin degradation and beta-catenin stabilization.

Tested Applications
WB
Western blotting (0.5-4 µg/ml). However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually. Jurkat cell lysate can be used as a positive control. The antibody recognizes the ~170 kDa full length LRP-5/6 of human and mouse origins. A cleavage fragment (~120 kDa) can also be detected. Reactivity to other species has not been tested.
