Docking Protein 7 (DOCK7) Antibody (Biotin)

Background

DOCK7 is a GEF for Rac1 and Cdc42, playing a key role in axon formation, neuronal polarization, and Schwann cell myelination. It regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics and microtubule stabilization in neurons. DOCK7 interacts with the WAVE complex to promote Rac1-mediated actin remodeling, essential for neuronal growth and cortical development. It also regulates cell cycle progression in neural progenitors and is involved in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer. DOCK7 dysregulation is linked to neurological disorders and tumor progression. Mouse models with DOCK7 loss exhibit defects in neural development, including axonal growth and Schwann cell function.
