OVGP1 Antibody

OVGP1 Antibody

Catalog# :4763

Oviductins belong to a family of glycoproteins that have been suggested to play several roles during the early processes of reproduction. OVGP1 is a large carbohydrate-rich, epithelial glycoprotein with numerous O-glycosylation sites within threonine, serine, and proline-rich tandem repeats. The protein is secreted from non-ciliated oviductal epithelial cells and associates with ovulated oocytes, blastomeres, and spermatozoan acrosomal regions. Despite its predicted molecular weight, OVGP1 will often run at higher molecular weight in SDS-PAGE. At least two isoforms of OVGP are known to exist.

Additional Names : OVGP1, OVGP, Oviductin, oviduct-specific glycoprotein, muc9
