Mouse Anti-Porcine Caveolin 1 (CAV1) Monoclonal Antibody

Porcine caveolin 1 (pCAV1) is a integral membrane protein that plays a crucial role in the formation and function of caveolae, which are small invaginations of the plasma membrane found in many cell types, including those of pigs. Caveolin 1 is a primary structural component of caveolae and is involved in multiple cellular processes, including signal transduction, lipid homeostasis, and the regulation of cell growth and survival. pCAV1 serves as a scaffolding protein, interacting with various signaling molecules and helping to modulate their activity. It is particularly important in the regulation of cell signaling pathways that involve receptor tyrosine kinases, which can be activated by growth factors and other extracellular stimuli.
