Anti-SCD2 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the SCD2 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the SCD5 gene, which encodes stearoyl-CoA desaturase 5. This protein is reported to be a Stearoyl-CoA desaturase that utilizes O(2) and electrons from reduced cytochrome b5 to introduce the first double bond into saturated fatty acyl-CoA substrates. The human version of SCD2 has a canonical amino acid length of 330 residues and a protein mass of 37.6 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the ER of cells. SCD2 is a member of the Fatty acid desaturase type 1 protein family. Western Blot is a widely used application for the SCD2 antibodies listed below. In addition, Immunofluorescence is also a common application.
