Anti-bbs-2 antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target bbs-2 is a known alias name of the protein Bardet-Biedl syndrome 2, encoded by the BBS2 gene in humans. This 721-amino acid residue protein is known to be involved in cartilage development and nervous system development, among other biological processes. It is localized to the cell projections and cytoplasm of the cell. In terms of tissue expression, it is widely expressed across many tissue types.
