Anti-DYNC2LI1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein dynein cytoplasmic 2 light intermediate chain 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 351 amino acid residues and a mass of 39.6 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the Golgi and cytoplasm. Up to 5 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to be expressed in bone, brain, kidney, and cartilage. A member of the Dynein light intermediate chain protein family, DYNC2LI1 is known to act as one of several non-catalytic accessory components of the cytoplasmic dynein 2 complex (dynein-2 complex), a motor protein complex that drives the movement of cargos along microtubules within cilia and flagella in concert with the intraflagellar transport (IFT) system, facilitating the assembly of these organelles. Synonyms for this target antigen include D2LIC, LIC3, cytoplasmic dynein 2 light intermediate chain 1, and CGI-60. A number of DYNC2LI1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. These antibodies are most commonly used in Western Blot experiments, among other applications.
