Anti-COG8 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein component of oligomeric golgi complex 8. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 612 amino acid residues and a mass of 68.4 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the Golgi and membrane. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the COG8 protein family, COG8 is reported to be required for normal Golgi function. The COG8 gene has been associated with the disease, Congenital disorder of glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include COG complex subunit 8, conserved oligomeric golgi complex component 8, dependent on RIC1, and conserved oligomeric Golgi complex subunit 8. COG8 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some COG8 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
