Anti-VSTM2A antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein V-set and transmembrane domain containing 2A. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 236 amino acid residues and a mass of 25.8 kDa. It has been described to be a secreted protein. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. VSTM2A is reported to play a role in the regulation of the early stage of white and brown preadipocyte cell differentiation. Post-translational modifications have been described, including N-glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include V-set and transmembrane domain containing 2, hypothetical protein MGC33530, and V-set and transmembrane domain-containing protein 2A. VSTM2A gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Western Blot is the most common application for the VSTM2A antibodies listed below. ELISA and Flow Cytometry are also common applications.
