Anti-MGLL antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein monoglyceride lipase. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 303 amino acid residues and a mass of 33.3 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the membrane and cytoplasm. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably expressed in adipose tissue, lung, liver, kidney, brain and heart. A member of the Monoacylglycerol lipase protein family, MGLL is known to be involved with inflammatory response pathways and the metabolism of lipids. Synonyms for this target antigen include HUK5, MAGL, MGL, lysophospholipase homolog, monoacylglycerol lipase, and HU-K5. MGLL gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of MGLL antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. Flow Cytometry, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
