Anti-Harakiri antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the Harakiri antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the HRK gene, which encodes harakiri, BCL2 interacting protein. This protein is known to function in the apoptotic pathway, among other biological roles. The human version of Harakiri has a canonical amino acid length of 91 residues and a protein mass of 9.9 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the mitochondria and membrane of cells. Other names for this target antigen include DP5 and activator of apoptosis harakiri. Indicated applications for Harakiri antibodies listed below include ELISA, Western Blot, and Immunohistochemistry.
