LECRK42 Antibody

Research Applications

LECRK42 antibody is validated for detecting the LECRK42 protein, a lectin receptor kinase implicated in plant signaling pathways. While its exact biological role in Arabidopsis remains under investigation, lectin receptor kinases generally participate in stress responses, pathogen recognition, and developmental regulation .

Key Features:

• Specificity: Targets recombinant LECRK42 protein with affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies, reducing cross-reactivity risks.

• Sensitivity: Suitable for detecting low-abundance proteins in plant tissue lysates via WB or ELISA.

• Utility: Facilitates studies on LECRK42’s function in plant immunity or growth processes.

Limitations and Future Directions

Current data on LECRK42 antibody are confined to manufacturer specifications, with no peer-reviewed studies cited in available literature. Further research is required to:

• Characterize LECRK42’s role in Arabidopsis signaling networks.

• Validate the antibody’s performance in additional applications (e.g., immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence).

• Explore cross-reactivity with homologs in other plant species.
