DLK1 (Delta-like non-canonical Notch ligand 1), also known as Pref-1 or FA1, is a Type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein. The recombinant DLK1 monomer protein (CSP-26440-01) contains the DLK1 extracellular domain (UniProt# P80370, amino acids Ala24-Gln303) fused with a His tag at the C-terminus. This protein is expressed in HEK293T cells. The recombinant human DLK1 monomer protein is bioactive and binds DLK1-specific antibodies. This DLK1 monomer can be used as an antigen for in vitro assays and antibody screening, and as an immunogen for immunization to generate antibodies targeting more conformational epitopes.

SDS PAGE Molecular Weight: The migration range of the dimer protein with glycosylation under non-reducing condition is between 40-50 kDa on SDS PAGE.
Protein Construct: DLK1 monomer protein contains the DLK1 extracellular domainfused with a His tag at the C-terminus.

Background and Alternate Names

DLK1 (Delta-like non-canonical Notch ligand 1), also known as Pref-1 or FA1, is a Type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein. It plays a critical role in controlling cell differentiation, tissue growth, and stem cell maintenance. DLK1 is highly expressed during embryonic development and functions as a regulator of multiple developmental processes, including adipogenesis, myogenesis, neurogenesis, and endocrine organ formation. The extracellular domain of DLK1 contains six EGF-like repeats and can be proteolytically cleaved to generate a soluble form that acts through paracrine and endocrine mechanisms. Although structurally related to canonical Notch ligands, DLK1 primarily functions as a non-canonical signaling molecule and has been implicated in regulating pathways involved in stem cell fate and tissue regeneration. Dysregulation of DLK1 expression has been associated with metabolic disorders, developmental abnormalities, and several cancers, highlighting its importance as both a biological marker and a potential therapeutic target.
