Anti-APOA5 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein apolipoprotein A5. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 366 amino acid residues and a mass of 41.2 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the Golgi and is secreted. A member of the Apolipoprotein A1/A4/E protein family, APOA5 is known to be involved with cholesterol metabolism and homeostasis and the metabolism of lipids. Post-translational modifications have been described, including phosphorylation. The APOA5 gene has been associated with the disease, Hypertriglyceridemia. Synonyms for this target antigen include apo-AV, regeneration-associated protein 3, and apolipoprotein A-V. APOA5 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of APOA5 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
