Scientific Background: LOXL1 is a member of the lysyl oxidase gene family which is essential to the biogenesis of connective tissue. LOXL1 encodes an extracellular copper-dependent amine oxidase that catalyses the first step in the formation of crosslinks in collagens and elastin. LOXL1 is responsible for catalyzing the oxidative deamination of lysine residues of tropoelastin and this deamination causes spontaneous cross-linking and formation of elastin polymer fibers (1). LOXL1 serves both as a crosslinking enzyme and an element of the scaffold to ensure spatially defined deposition of elastin (2).

Product Notes
The LOXL1 loxl1 (Catalog #AAA14246) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The tag for this protein is GST tag!!Expression System||Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus!!Source Note||Recombinant human LOXL1 (292-end) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag. AAA Biotech's LOXL1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the LOXL1 loxl1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "LOXL1, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
