LCN1 (10B1) Antibody

LCN1 (Lipocalin 1) belongs to the lipocalin family. Lipocalins are a group of extracellular proteins that are able to bind lipophiles by enclosure within their structures to minimize solvent contact. This protein may bind hydrophobic ligands and inhibit cysteine proteinases. It may also play a role in taste reception and could be necessary for the concentration and delivery of sapid molecules in the gustatory system.
