Anti-PEDF-R antibodies are used in antigen-specific immunodetection in biological samples. The target PEDF-R is a known alias name of the protein patatin like phospholipase domain containing 2, encoded by the PNPLA2 gene in humans. This 504-amino acid residue protein is known to catalyze the initial step in triglyceride hydrolysis in adipocyte and non-adipocyte lipid droplets. It is localized to the cell membrane and cytoplasm of the cell and features glycosylated, ubiquitinated and phosphorylated post-translational modifications. In terms of tissue expression, it is reported to be highly expressed in adipose tissue. Western Blot is the most common application for the PEDF-R antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
