Anti-Cryptochrome 2 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Cryptochrome 2 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the CRY2 gene, which encodes cryptochrome circadian regulator 2. This protein is known to function in carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis and the metabolism of lipids, among other biological roles. The human version of Cryptochrome 2 has a canonical amino acid length of 593 residues and a protein mass of 66.9 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include HCRY2, PHLL2, and cryptochrome-2. Indicated applications for Cryptochrome 2 antibodies listed below include ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry.
