Anti-KNS antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the KNS antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the KIF5B gene, which encodes kinesin family member 5B. This protein is known to function in axon guidance and the transport of ions, among other biological roles. The human version of KNS has a canonical amino acid length of 963 residues and a protein mass of 109.7 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the membrane, lysosomes and cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include HEL-S-61 and KINH. Immunohistochemistry is the most common application for the KNS antibodies listed below. ELISA and Western Blot are also common applications.
