Myocilin (MYOC) Antibody, Abbexa, abx001338

MYOC Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody against MYOC. Myocilin (MYOC), also known as TIGR or GLC1A, is a secreted glycoprotein of the olfactomedin family, originally identified in trabecular meshwork cells after prolonged treatment with glucocorticoids, and, independently, in the retina (PMID: 9176893; 9169133). It may participate in the obstruction of fluid outflow in the trabecular meshwork. Defects in MYOC are the cause of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) (PMID: 21709622). MYOC has a molecular weight of 55-57 kDa, besides, a 66-kDa form, which could be a result of post-translational modifications, has also been reported in some researches (PMID: 9497363; 12150989).
