Anti-EDAR antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein ectodysplasin A receptor. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 448 amino acid residues and a mass of 48.6 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the membrane. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is notably expressed in fetal kidney, lung, skin and cultured neonatal epidermal keratinocytes. EDAR is a known receptor for EDA isoform A1, but not for EDA isoform A2. Post-translational modifications have been described, including glycosylation. The EDAR gene has been associated with the disease, Ectodermal dysplasia. Synonyms for this target antigen include ECTD10A, ECTD10B, ED1R, ED3, ED5, EDA-A1R, EDA1R, and DL. EDAR gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of EDAR antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
