Anti-NgR antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the NgR antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the RTN4R gene, which encodes reticulon 4 receptor. This protein is known to function in neuronal development and receptor-mediated signaling pathways, among other biological roles. The human version of NgR has a canonical amino acid length of 473 residues and a protein mass of 50.7 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the cell membrane of cells. NgR is a member of the Nogo receptor protein family.
