Anti-ABCG8 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein ATP binding cassette subfamily G member 8. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 673 amino acid residues and a mass of 75.7 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to be highly expressed in the the liver. A member of the ABCG protein family, ABCG8 is known to be involved with cholesterol metabolism and homeostasis. Post-translational modifications have been described, including N-glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include ATP-binding cassette, sub-family G (WHITE), member 8 and sterolin 2. ABCG8 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of ABCG8 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
