Anti-IGFR antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target IGFR is a known alias name of the protein insulin like growth factor 1 receptor, encoded by the IGF1R gene in humans. This 1367-amino acid residue protein is a known receptor tyrosine kinase which mediates actions of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1). It is localized to the cell membrane of the cell and features glycosylated, ubiquitinated, sumoylated, cleaved and phosphorylated post-translational modifications. It is reported to be widely expressed in many tissue types. Other synonyms for IGFR include CD221, CD221, and IGFIR. Western Blot is a widely used application for the IGFR antibodies listed below. In addition, Immunohistochemistry is also a common application.
