Anti-DIC5 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the DIC5 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the DYNC2I2 gene, which encodes dynein 2 intermediate chain 2. This protein is known to function in cilium assembly, among other biological roles. The human version of DIC5 has a canonical amino acid length of 536 residues and a protein mass of 57.8 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. DIC5 is a member of the Dynein light intermediate chain protein family.
