Anti-PLXNC1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein plexin C1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1568 amino acid residues and a mass of 175.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the membrane. It is notably expressed in fetal brain, lung, spleen and placenta. A member of the Plexin protein family, PLXNC1 is a known receptor for SEMA7A, for smallpox semaphorin A39R, vaccinia virus semaphorin A39R and for herpesvirus Sema protein. Synonyms for this target antigen include VESPR, plexin (semaphorin receptor), receptor for viral semaphorin protein, receptor for virally-encoded semaphorin, virus-encoded semaphorin protein receptor, and CD232. PLXNC1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of PLXNC1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. ELISA, Western Blot, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are common applications for these antibodies.
