Function
This antibody targets ornithine decarboxylase 1 (ODC-1), an enzyme that catalyzes the initial and rate-limiting step in polyamine biosynthesis. This process converts ornithine into putrescine, a precursor for the essential polyamines spermidine and spermine. Polyamines are crucial for cell proliferation and play a vital role in various cellular processes, including DNA replication and apoptosis.
