Anti-DST antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein dystonin. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 7570 amino acid residues and a mass of 860.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 9 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. DST is known to be involved with cell adhesion and cytoskeleton organization. The DST gene has been associated with the disease, Neuropathy. Synonyms for this target antigen include BPA, BPAG1, CATX-15, CATX15, D6S1101, DMH, DT, and BP240. DST gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some DST antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
