Anti-BOD1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein biorientation of chromosomes in cell division 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 185 amino acid residues and a mass of 19.2 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the BOD1 protein family, BOD1 is known to be required for proper chromosome biorientation through the detection or correction of syntelic attachments in mitotic spindles. Synonyms for this target antigen include biorientation defective 1, family with sequence similarity 44, member B, and biorientation of chromosomes in cell division protein 1. BOD1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some BOD1 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Immunohistochemistry is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunofluorescence are also common applications.
