Anti-PODN antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein podocan. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 613 amino acid residues and a mass of 69 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the extracellular matrix and cytoplasm. Up to 4 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the Small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) protein family, PODN is known to be involved with the regulation of cell migration and the regulation of cell proliferation. Post-translational modifications have been described, including N-glycosylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include podocan proteoglycan. PODN gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some PODN antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
