Anti-HXK2 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the HXK2 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the HK2 gene, which encodes hexokinase 2. This protein is known to function in the apoptotic pathway and carbohydrate metabolism and homeostasis, among other biological roles. The human version of HXK2 has a canonical amino acid length of 917 residues and a protein mass of 102.4 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the membrane, mitochondria, and cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include HKII and HKII. Western Blot is the most common application for the HXK2 antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
