The WNT gene family consists of structurally related genesthat encode secreted signaling proteins. These proteins have beenimplicated in oncogenesis and in several developmental processes,including regulation of cell fate and patterning duringembryogenesis. This gene is a member of the WNT gene family. It isexpressed in gastric cancer cell lines. The protein encoded by thisgene shows 75% amino acid identity to chicken Wnt14, which has beenshown to play a central role in initiating synovial joint formationin the chick limb. This gene is clustered with another familymember, WNT3A, in the chromosome 1q42 region.
Titration of the WNT9A antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
A portion of amino acids 216-244 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this WNT9A antibody.
Aliquot the WNT9A antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
