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

Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the brain cortex (at protein level). Widely expressed with the highest level of expression in the brain (nerve fibers, varicosities, and nerve endings). In the brain, the regions where it can be mainly found are the cerebellar cortex, the neocortex, the striatum, and the hippocampal formation.
Subcellular Localizations
[Huntingtin]: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Early endosome. The mutant Huntingtin protein colocalizes with AKAP8L in the nuclear matrix of Huntington disease neurons. Shuttles between cytoplasm and nucleus in a Ran GTPase-independent manner (PubMed:15654337). Recruits onto early endosomes in a Rab5- and HAP40-dependent fashion (PubMed:16476778).; [Huntingtin, myristoylated N-terminal fragment]: Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome.
