Anti-CRIPT antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein CXXC repeat containing interactor of PDZ3 domain. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 101 amino acid residues and a mass of 11.2 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. It is notably expressed in many tissues, such as the bronchus and cerebral cortex. It is a member of the CRIPT protein family. The CRIPT gene has been associated with the disease, Short stature with microcephaly and distinctive facies. Synonyms for this target antigen include SSMDF, cysteine-rich PDZ-binding protein, cysteine-rich interactor of PDZ three, cysteine-rich interactor of PDZ3, postsynaptic protein CRIPT, and HSPC139. CRIPT gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some CRIPT antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
