Anti-hx antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the hx antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the HPX gene, which encodes hemopexin. This protein is known to function in metabolic processes, among other biological roles. The human version of hx has a canonical amino acid length of 462 residues and a protein mass of 51.7 kilodaltons. It is reported to be a secreted protein. hx is a member of the Hemopexin protein family. Western Blot is the most common application for the hx antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
