Anti-SHISA8 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein shisa family member 8. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 397 amino acid residues and a mass of 42 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the membrane. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the Shisa protein family, SHISA8 is believed to regulate trafficking and current kinetics of AMPA-type glutamate receptor (AMPAR) at synapses. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation.
The SHISA8 marker can be used to identify Cerebral Cortex MGE Interneurons.* Synonyms for this target antigen include CTA-250D10.17, putative protein shisa-8, shisa homolog 8, and protein shisa-8. SHISA8 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some SHISA8 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Indicated applications for the antibodies listed below include ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry.
