Anti-FTNS antibodies are protein reagents that detect specific antigens. The FTNS antigen is another term for the human protein myosin heavy chain 9, encoded by the MYH9 gene. The protein is reported to be a cellular myosin that appears to play a role in cytokinesis, cell shape, and specialized functions such as secretion and capping. Canonically, it has an amino acid length of 1960 residues and a mass of 226.5 kilodaltons. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasmic vesicles and cytoplasm and it is widely expressed in many tissue types. The FTNS protein is a member of the Myosin protein family. Other alias names for FTNS include BDPLT6, DFNA17, and EPSTS. Some FTNS antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
