Anti-CLEC16A antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein C-type lectin domain containing 16A. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1053 amino acid residues and a mass of 117.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the endosome, lysosomes, and membrane. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the CLEC16A/gop-1 protein family, CLEC16A is a reported regulator of mitophagy through the upstream regulation of the RNF41/NRDP1-PRKN pathway. Synonyms for this target antigen include KIAA0350, protein CLEC16A, C-type lectin domain family 16 member A, and Gop-1. CLEC16A gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of CLEC16A antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
