Description

This antibody recognizes a 53kDa protein, identified as the Ornithine Decarboxylase. ODC-1 is the initial and rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of polyamines and is involved in the conversion of ornithine to putrescine. The biological activity of ODC-1 is rapidly induced in response to virtually all agents known to promote cell proliferation including hormones, drugs, growth factors, mitogens, and tumor promoters. Reportedly, ODC-1 mRNA levels are elevated in lung carcinomas as well as in colon adenomas and carcinomas. Activity in colorectal carcinomas is greater than those in adenomas and normal mucosa
