ERVK-21 Antibodies

AND ERVK-21 ELISA kits, ERVK-21 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect ERVK-21, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with ERVK-21 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop ERVK-21 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to ERVK-21 by testing them on tissues known to express ERVK-21 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the ERVK-21 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 0 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

ERVK-21 Overview

Facts about Endogenous retrovirus group K member 21 Env polyprotein.

Endogenous retrovirus group K member 21 Env polyprotein (ERVK-21)

Retroviral envelope proteins mediate receptor recognition and membrane fusion during early infection. Endogenous envelope proteins may have kept, lost or modified their original function during evolution.

This endogenous envelope protein has lost its original fusogenic properties. .
