Anti-NYAP3 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the NYAP3 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the MYO16 gene, which encodes myosin XVI. This protein is known to function in brain development and the regulation of cell proliferation, among other biological roles. The human version of NYAP3 has a canonical amino acid length of 1858 residues and a protein mass of 206.1 kilodaltons, although 4 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the cytoplasm of cells. Other names for this target antigen include MYAP3, MYR8, and Myo16b.
