Anti-CRYGA antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein crystallin gamma A. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 174 amino acid residues and a mass of 20.9 kDa. It is notably expressed in the eye. A member of the Beta/gamma-crystallin protein family, CRYGA is known to be involved with eye development. Synonyms for this target antigen include CRYG5, gamma-crystallin A, crystallin, gamma 1, gamma-crystallin 5, and CRYG1. CRYGA gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat and chimpanzee species. Some CRYGA antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
