Anti-HOOK3 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein hook microtubule tethering protein 3. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 718 amino acid residues and a mass of 83.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the Golgi and cytoplasm. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the Hook protein family, HOOK3 is known to act as a adapter protein linking the dynein motor complex to various cargos and converts dynein from a non-processive to a highly processive motor in the presence of dynactin. Synonyms for this target antigen include h-hook3, hHK3, hook homolog 3, and protein Hook homolog 3. HOOK3 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of HOOK3 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
