Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
nidogen 1(NID1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a member of the nidogen family of basement membrane glycoproteins. The protein interacts with several other components of basement membranes, and may play a role in cell interactions with the extracellular matrix. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
function:Sulfated glycoprotein widely distributed in basement membranes and tightly associated with laminin. Also binds to collagen IV and perlecan. It probably has a role in cell-extracellular matrix interactions.,PTM:N- and O-glycosylated.,similarity:Contains 1 NIDO domain.,similarity:Contains 1 nidogen G2 beta-barrel domain.,similarity:Contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain.,similarity:Contains 4 LDL-receptor class B repeats.,similarity:Contains 6 EGF-like domains.,subunit:Interacts with FBLN1 and LGALS3BP.,
