Anti-YKI antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the YKI antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the YAP1 gene, which encodes Yes1 associated transcriptional regulator. This protein is known to function in the Wnt signaling pathway and cell proliferation, among other biological roles. The human version of YKI has a canonical amino acid length of 504 residues and a protein mass of 54.5 kilodaltons, although 9 isoforms have been identified. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm of cells and widely expressed in many tissue types. Other names for this target antigen include COB1, YAP, and YAP2. Western Blot is a widely used application for the YKI antibodies listed below. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
