Anti-ML1 antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target ML1 is a known alias name of the protein ATPase phospholipid transporting 8A2, encoded by the ATP8A2 gene in humans. This 1188-amino acid residue protein is reported to be a catalytic component of a P4-ATPase flippase complex which catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled to the transport of aminophospholipids from the outer to the inner leaflet of various membranes and ensures the maintenance of asymmetric distribution of phospholipids (By similarity). It is localized to the Golgi and cell membrane of the cell. In terms of tissue expression, it is reported to be highly expressed in the brain, cerebellum, retina and testis.
