Anti-SPTLC2 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein serine palmitoyltransferase long chain base subunit 2. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 562 amino acid residues and a mass of 62.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the ER. It is widely expressed across many tissue types. A member of the Class-II pyridoxal-phosphate-dependent aminotransferase protein family, SPTLC2 is known to be involved with adipose tissue development and the metabolism of lipids. The SPTLC2 gene has been associated with the disease, Neuropathy. Synonyms for this target antigen include LCB2, LCB2A, NSAN1C, SPT2, hLCB2a, serine palmitoyltransferase 2, LCB 2, and HSN1C. SPTLC2 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of SPTLC2 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.
