Anti-Peroxin-5 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Peroxin-5 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the PEX5 gene, which encodes peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5. This protein is known to function in neuronal differentiation, among other biological roles. The human version of Peroxin-5 has a canonical amino acid length of 639 residues and a protein mass of 70.9 kilodaltons, although 4 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include PBD2A, PBD2B, and PTS1-BP. Indicated applications for Peroxin-5 antibodies listed below include ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry.
