Anti-lactation elevated 1 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the lactation elevated 1 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the AFG1L gene, which encodes AFG1 like ATPase. This protein is known to function in electron transport, among other biological roles. The human version of lactation elevated 1 has a canonical amino acid length of 481 residues and a protein mass of 54.8 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the mitochondria of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include ATPase family gene 1 homolog, CG8520 gene product, and lactation elevated 1.
