Anti-RNF5 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein ring finger protein 5. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 180 amino acid residues and a mass of 19.9 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the mitochondria, ER, and cell membrane. It is widely expressed across many tissue types. A member of the RNF5 protein family, RNF5 is known to be involved with autophagy pathways and transmembrane transport. Synonyms for this target antigen include RMA1, E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF5, RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase RNF5, protein G16, ram1 homolog, and RING5. RNF5 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish and chimpanzee species. A number of RNF5 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
