Anti-ABHD17A antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein abhydrolase domain containing 17A, depalmitoylase. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 310 amino acid residues and a mass of 34 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell membrane. Up to 4 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. It is a member of the ABHD17 protein family. Post-translational modifications have been described, including palmitoylation. Synonyms for this target antigen include abhydrolase domain-containing protein 17A, abhydrolase domain-containing protein FAM108A1, family with sequence similarity 108, member A1, and alpha/beta hydrolase domain-containing protein 17A. ABHD17A gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some ABHD17A antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Immunofluorescence is a widely used application for these antibodies. Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry, and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
