Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation Specificity / Sensitivity DOCK5 (E6R9W) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total DOCK5 protein. Species Reactivity: Human Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro1863 of human DOCK5 protein. Background Rho family small GTPases act as molecular switches, regulating processes such as cell migration, adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. They are activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), which catalyze the exchange of bound GDP for GTP, and are inhibited by GTPase activating proteins (GAPs), which catalyze the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP (1). DOCK5 (dedicator of cytokinesis 5) is a Rho family GEF that plays an essential role in generating the sealing zone, an osteoclast-specific adhesion structure that mediates bone resorption and is regulated by actin and microtubule cytoskeletal signaling. Due to its role in bone resorption, DOCK5 is a potential therapeutic target for osteoporosis (2-4).
