Mouse Anti-Human Opticin

• Opticin is an extracellular matrix protein predominantly found in the vitreous of the eye. It regulates collagen fibril spacing and organization, contributing to the structural integrity of tissues. Opticin gene mutations have been linked to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinitis pigmentosa (AXPC1), conditions affecting vision.

• • Host Species: Mouse
