Anti-Chordin-like 1 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the CHRDL1 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 456 amino acid residues and a mass of 52 kDa. It is known to be a secreted protein. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 4 different isoforms for this protein. It is reported to be expressed in the developing cornea and in the eye anterior segment in addition to the retina. It is noted to be involved in cell differentiation and eye development. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. Other names for this target antigen include neuralin-1, neurogenesin-1, ventroptin, and chordin-like protein 1. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of Chordin-like 1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
