Anti-C18orf42 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the C18orf42 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the AKAIN1 gene, which encodes A-kinase anchor inhibitor 1. This protein is known to function in protein localization and the assembly of protein complexes, among other biological roles. The human version of C18orf42 has a canonical amino acid length of 69 residues and a protein mass of 7.8 kilodaltons.
