Anti-hephaestin like 1 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the HEPHL1 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1159 amino acid residues and a mass of 131.6 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the membrane. A member of the Multicopper oxidase protein family, it is known to be involved with the transport of ions. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. The gene encoding this protein is implicated in Abnormal hair, joint laxity, and developmental delay. Other names for this target antigen include hephaestin-like protein 1, zyklopen, and ferroxidase HEPHL1. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Western Blot is a widely used application for the hephaestin like 1 antibodies listed below. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
