Anti-nucleoporin 160 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the NUP160 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1436 amino acid residues and a mass of 162.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 3 different isoforms for this protein. It is known to function as a component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). The gene encoding this protein is implicated in Nephrotic syndrome. Other names for this target antigen include nuclear pore complex protein Nup160, 160 kDa nucleoporin, nucleoporin 160kD, nucleoporin 160kDa, nucleoporin Nup160, and NPHS19. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some nucleoporin 160 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
