Anti-RARALPHA antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the RARALPHA antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the RARA gene, which encodes retinoic acid receptor alpha. This protein is known to function in the apoptotic pathway and cell differentiation, among other biological roles. The human version of RARALPHA has a canonical amino acid length of 462 residues and a protein mass of 50.8 kilodaltons, although 3 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm of cells. Other names for this target antigen include NR1B1 and RAR. Western Blot is the most common application for the RARALPHA antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
