Designing a Western blot for PLA2G6? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the PLA2G6 Western Blot GuideFacts about 85/88 kDa calcium-independent phospholipase A2.
May participate in fas mediated apoptosis and in regulating transmembrane ion flux in glucose-stimulated B-cells. Has a role in cardiolipin (CL) deacylation.
