Anti-ADARB2 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein adenosine deaminase RNA specific B2 (inactive). In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 739 amino acid residues and a mass of 80.6 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is reported to have brain specific expression. ADARB2 is known to be involved with mRNA processing.
The ADARB2 marker can be used to identify Brain Splatter Neurons and Dorsal Excitatory Neurons.* Synonyms for this target antigen include RED2, double-stranded RNA-specific editase B2, RED2 homolog, RNA-dependent adenosine deaminase 3, RNA-editing deaminase 2, and ADAR3. ADARB2 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of ADARB2 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. These antibodies are most commonly used in Western Blot experiments, among other applications.
