Anti-BLVRB antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein biliverdin reductase B. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 206 amino acid residues and a mass of 22.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. It is reported to be highly expressed in the liver and erythrocytes. The BLVRB marker can be used to identify Erythroid Lineage Cells.* Synonyms for this target antigen include FLR, HEL-S-10, SDR43U1, flavin reductase (NADPH), BVR-B, FR, GHBP, and BVRB. BLVRB gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish and chimpanzee species.
