Anti-ALK7 Antibody is a monoclonal antibody that targets ALK7. Anti-ALK7 Antibody can be used in ELISA, FACS, and functional assays. For isotype controls of Anti-ALK7 Antibody, please refer to Human IgG1 (L234A/L235A) kappa, Isotype Control.
In Vitro, ALK-7, also known as ACVR1C, is a type I receptor serine-threonine kinase mediate inhibitory as well as stimulatory signals for growth and differentiation by binding to members of the TGF-β superfamily. ALK-7 combined with specific ligands, such as Nodal, activin B and growth differentiation factor (GDF), can activate Smads and other signaling pathways, thereby regulating cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis in various cells. ALK-7 is predominantly expressed in central nervous system. ALK-7 can form complexes with type II receptor serine-threonine kinases for TGF-β and activin in a ligand-dependent manner.
