Anti-SOCS5 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein suppressor of cytokine signaling 5. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 536 amino acid residues and a mass of 61.2 kDa. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. SOCS5 is known to be involved with cytokine-mediated signaling pathways and intracellular signal transduction. Post-translational modifications have been described, including phosphorylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include CISH6, Cish5, CIS-6, cytokine-inducible SH2 protein 6, cytokine-inducible SH2-containing protein 5, and CIS6. SOCS5 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of SOCS5 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
