Anti-BAG5 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein BAG cochaperone 5. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 447 amino acid residues and a mass of 51.2 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the mitochondria. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to be expressed in the heart. BAG5 is known to be involved with Golgi organization and the response to oxidative stress. The BAG5 gene has been associated with the disease, Cardiomyopathy. Synonyms for this target antigen include BAG family molecular chaperone regulator 5, BCL2 associated athanogene 5, bcl-2-associated athanogene 5, and CMD2F. BAG5 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of BAG5 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. These antibodies are most commonly used in Western Blot experiments, among other applications.
