Docking Protein 6 (DOCK6) Antibody (Biotin)

Background

DOCK6 is a dual GEF for Rac1 and Cdc42, critical for cytoskeleton regulation, neurite outgrowth, and axonal growth. It facilitates actin and microtubule dynamics, influencing processes like neuronal development and fibroblast migration. DOCK6 mutations are associated with Adams-Oliver syndrome, characterized by limb and scalp defects due to impaired cell migration. It is expressed in neural and connective tissues, where it regulates cellular polarity and adhesion. DOCK6 interacts with Rac1 to drive membrane protrusion and lamellipodia formation. Knockdown studies show defects in axonal elongation and cellular migration, underscoring its role in tissue development and repair.
