Anti-Rhced antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Rhced antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the RHD gene, which encodes Rh blood group D antigen. This protein is believed to be part of an oligomeric complex which is likely to have a transport or channel function in the erythrocyte membrane. The human version of Rhced has a canonical amino acid length of 417 residues and a protein mass of 45.2 kilodaltons, although 6 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the cell membrane of cells and notably expressed in the bone marrow. Other names for this target antigen include CD240D, CD240D, and DIIIc.
