ITLN1 Polyclonal Antibody

Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the investigator. Suggested starting dilutions are as follows: WB (1:500-1:2000), ELISA (1:5000-1:20000).

Liquid solution

PBS, pH 7.4, containing 0.02% Sodium Azide as preservative and 50% Glycerol.

Gel pack with blue ice.

ITLN1 (Intelectin 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with ITLN1 include Obesity and Diabetes Mellitus, Noninsulin-Dependent. Among its related pathways are Common Cytokine Receptor Gamma-Chain Family Signaling Pathways and Innate Immune System. GO annotations related to this gene include carbohydrate binding. An important paralog of this gene is ITLN2. Lectin that specifically recognizes microbial carbohydrate chains in a calcium-dependent manner (PubMed: 11313366, PubMed: 26148048). Binds to microbial glycans that contain a terminal acyclic 1, 2-diol moiety, including beta-linked D-galactofuranose (beta-Galf), D-phosphoglycerol-modified glycans, D-glycero-D-talo-oct-2-ulosonic acid (KO) and 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (KDO) (PubMed: 26148048). Binds to glycans from Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including K. neumoniae, S. neumoniae, Y. estis, P. irabilis and P. ulgaris (PubMed: 26148048). Does not bind human glycans (PubMed: 26148048). Probably plays a role in the defense system against microorganisms (Probable). May function as adipokine that has no effect on basal glucose uptake but enhances insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in adipocytes (PubMed: 16531507). Increases AKT phosphorylation in the absence and presence of insulin (PubMed: 16531507). May interact with lactoferrin/LTF and increase its uptake, and may thereby play a role in iron absorption (PubMed: 11747454, PubMed: 23921499).
