Anti-Matriptase antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Matriptase antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the ST14 gene, which encodes ST14 transmembrane serine protease matriptase. This protein is known to function in keratinocyte differentiation and proteolysis, among other biological roles. The human version of Matriptase has a canonical amino acid length of 855 residues and a protein mass of 94.8 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the membrane of cells and notably expressed in many tissues, such as the duodenum and fallopian tube. Matriptase is a member of the Peptidase S1 protein family. Western Blot is the most common application for the Matriptase antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
