Anti-XK related 5 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the XKR5 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 686 amino acid residues and a mass of 75 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 2 different isoforms for this protein. A member of the XK protein family, it is known to be involved with the apoptotic pathway. Other names for this target antigen include X Kell blood group precursor-related family, member 5, X-linked Kx blood group related 5, XK, Kell blood group complex subunit-related family, member 5, XK-related protein 5a, and XK-related protein 5. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. Indicated applications for XK related 5 antibodies listed below include Western Blot.
