Anti-Glycogenin 2 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the GYG2 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 501 amino acid residues and a mass of 55.2 kDa. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 6 different isoforms for this protein. It is notably expressed in the liver. It is a member of the Glycosyltransferase 8 protein family. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. Other names for this target antigen include GN2, glycogenin glucosyltransferase, and GN-2. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. Western Blot is the most common application for the Glycogenin 2 antibodies listed below. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
