Anti-MJD antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the MJD antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the ATXN3 gene, which encodes ataxin 3. This protein is known to function in cytoskeleton organization and chemical synaptic transmission, among other biological roles. The human version of MJD has a canonical amino acid length of 361 residues and a protein mass of 41.3 kilodaltons, although 5 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus of cells. Other names for this target antigen include AT3, ATX3, and JOS. Western Blot is the most common application for the MJD antibodies listed below. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
