Anti-TGM6 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein transglutaminase 6. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 706 amino acid residues and a mass of 79.3 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the Transglutaminase protein family, TGM6 is known to catalyze the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. The TGM6 gene has been associated with the disease, Spinocerebellar ataxia. Synonyms for this target antigen include TGase Y, TGase-6, transglutaminase y, and protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase 6. TGM6 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog and chimpanzee species. Some TGM6 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
