Anti-Omentin antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Omentin antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the ITLN1 gene, which encodes intelectin 1. This protein is known to function in carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis and protein phosphorylation, among other biological roles. The human version of Omentin has a canonical amino acid length of 313 residues and a protein mass of 35 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the cell membrane and is secreted of cells and notably expressed in the small intestine, rectum, duodenum, colon, and appendix. A number of Omentin antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
