Anti-RTL6 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein retrotransposon Gag like 6. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 239 amino acid residues and a mass of 26.2 kDa. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. It is a member of the LDOC1 protein family. Synonyms for this target antigen include LDOC1 like, Sushi-Ichi retrotransposon homolog 3, leucine zipper down-regulated in cancer 1 like, leucine zipper protein down-regulated in cancer cells-like, and retrotransposon Gag-like protein 6. RTL6 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine and chimpanzee species. Western Blot is the most common application for the RTL6 antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunocytochemistry are also common applications.
