Anti-PTPMT1 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein protein tyrosine phosphatase mitochondrial 1. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 201 amino acid residues and a mass of 22.8 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the mitochondria. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the Protein-tyrosine phosphatase protein family, Ptpmt1 is reported to be a lipid phosphatase, which dephosphorylates phosphatidylglycerophosphate (PGP) to phosphatidylglycerol (PG) (By similarity). Synonyms for this target antigen include NB4 apoptosis/differentiation related protein, PTEN-like phosphatase, phosphoinositide lipid phosphatase, and phosphatidylglycerophosphatase and protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1. PTPMT1 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of Ptpmt1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
