Anti-IFT57 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein intraflagellar transport 57. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 429 amino acid residues and a mass of 49.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell projections and cytoplasm. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the IFT57 protein family, ift57 is known to be required for the formation of cilia. The IFT57 gene has been associated with the disease, Orofaciodigital syndrome. Synonyms for this target antigen include HIPPI, MHS4R2, OFD18, intraflagellar transport protein 57 homolog, HIP1 protein interactor, and ESRRBL1. IFT57 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of ift57 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. Immunofluorescence and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
