Anti-MYL6B antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein myosin light chain 6B. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 208 amino acid residues and a mass of 22.8 kDa. It is notably expressed in the smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, kidney, heart muscle, and appendix. MYL6B is known to be involved with skeletal muscle tissue development. Synonyms for this target antigen include myosin light chain 1 slow a, myosin, light chain 6B, alkali, smooth muscle and non-muscle, myosin, light polypeptide 6B, alkali, smooth muscle and non-muscle, and myosin alkali light chain 1 slow a. MYL6B gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine and chimpanzee species. These MYL6B antibodies are widely used in Western Blot experiments, among other applications.
