Background Information

DCX (Doublecortin) is a microtubule-associated protein that is essential for normal brain development. DCX is expressed in migrating neurons throughout the central and peripheral nervous system during embryonic and postnatal development. Anti-DCX antibodies are widely used for detection of neurogenesis. It's also a common neuron marker since its expression is specific to neurons.
