Anti-EMAP like 2 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the EML2 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 649 amino acid residues and a mass of 70.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 3 different isoforms for this protein. It is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. A member of the WD repeat EMAP protein family, it is known to be involved with cytoskeleton organization. Other names for this target antigen include EMAP-2, EMAP2, echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 2, echinoderm MT-associated protein (EMAP)-like protein 70, and ELP70. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog and chimpanzee species.
