Anti-USP48 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein ubiquitin specific peptidase 48. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1035 amino acid residues and a mass of 119 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Up to 8 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is widely expressed across many tissue types. A member of the Peptidase C19 protein family, USP48 is known to recognize and hydrolyzes the peptide bond at the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin. Synonyms for this target antigen include deubiquitinating enzyme 48, ubiquitin specific protease 31, ubiquitin thioesterase 48, ubiquitin thiolesterase 48, ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 48, and ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 48. USP48 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of USP48 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
