Anti-HBGF-1 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the HBGF-1 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the FGF1 gene, which encodes fibroblast growth factor 1. This protein is known to function in the morphogenesis of anatomical structure and angiogenesis, among other biological roles. The human version of HBGF-1 has a canonical amino acid length of 155 residues and a protein mass of 17.5 kilodaltons, although 2 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and is secreted of cells and notably expressed in the kidney. Other names for this target antigen include AFGF, ECGF, and ECGF-beta. Western Blot is the most common application for the HBGF-1 antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
