Anti-TTC8 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein tetratricopeptide repeat domain 8. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 541 amino acid residues and a mass of 61.5 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 5 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is widely expressed across many tissue types. TTC8 is known to be involved with axon guidance and camera-type eye photoreceptor cell differentiation. The TTC8 gene has been associated with the disease, Retinitis pigmentosa. Synonyms for this target antigen include Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 8, TPR repeat protein 8, and tetratricopeptide repeat protein 8. TTC8 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some TTC8 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.
