Anti-GFER antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein growth factor, augmenter of liver regeneration. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 205 amino acid residues and a mass of 23.4 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the mitochondria, cytoplasm, and is secreted. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is ubiquitously expressed across many tissue types. GFER is known to be involved with the cellular response to lipopolysaccharides and TNF-mediated cellular signaling pathways. The GFER gene has been associated with the disease, Myopathy. Synonyms for this target antigen include ERV1, HERV1, HPO, HPO1, HPO2, HSS, MMCHD, and ALR. GFER gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of GFER 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.
