Anti-gil antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target gil is a known alias name of the protein aquaporin 3 (Gill blood group), encoded by the AQP3 gene in humans. This 292-amino acid residue protein is known to be a water channel required to promote glycerol permeability and water transport across cell membranes. It is localized to the cell membrane of the cell and features glycosylated post-translational modifications. In terms of tissue expression, it is found to be widely expressed in epithelial cells of kidney (collecting ducts) and airways, in keratinocytes, immature dendritic cells and erythrocytes. Other synonyms for gil include aquaporin-3 and aquaglyceroporin-3. Some gil antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Indicated applications for the antibodies listed below include ELISA, Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry, Immunoprecipitation, and Immunohistochemistry.
