Anti-BLOC1S1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein biogenesis of lysosomal organelles complex 1 subunit 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 153 amino acid residues and a mass of 17.3 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the mitochondria, lysosomes and cytoplasm. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the BLOC1S1 protein family, BLOC1S1 is a known component of the BLOC-1 complex, a complex that is required for normal biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles (LRO), such as platelet dense granules and melanosomes. Synonyms for this target antigen include BORCS1, GCN5L1, MICoA, RT14, biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles complex 1 subunit 1, and BLOS1. BLOC1S1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of BLOC1S1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
