Anti-TAF1L antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein TATA-box binding protein associated factor 1 like. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1826 amino acid residues and a mass of 207.3 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus. A member of the TAF1 protein family, TAF1L is believed to act as a functional substitute for TAF1/TAFII250 during male meiosis, when sex chromosomes are transcriptionally silenced. Synonyms for this target antigen include TAF1 RNA polymerase II, TATA box binding protein (TBP)-associated factor, 210kDa-like, TBP-associated factor 1-like, TBP-associated factor 210 kDa, and transcription initiation factor TFIID subunit 1-like. TAF1L gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse and chimpanzee species. Some TAF1L antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. ELISA and Western Blot are common applications for these antibodies.
