Anti-WDR45 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein WD repeat domain 45. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 360 amino acid residues and a mass of 39.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 3 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is widely expressed across many tissue types. A member of the WD repeat PROPPIN protein family, WDR45 is a known component of the autophagy machinery that controls the major intracellular degradation process by which cytoplasmic materials are packaged into autophagosomes and delivered to lysosomes for degradation. Synonyms for this target antigen include NBIA4, NBIA5, WDRX1, WIPI-4, WIPI4, and JM5. WDR45 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of WDR45 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, Immunofluorescence is also a common application.
