Description

General description

Fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5) is expressed in the muscles. Low levels of the mRNA are also present in the kidney, liver and lung. FNDC5 is cleaved and secreted as irisin, a hormone. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 1p35.1.

Immunogen

fibronectin type III domain containing 5 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Western Blotting (1 paper)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5) is associated with beneficial responses of exercise on cellular metabolism. Studies have indicated that it is mainly responsible for the conversion of white fat into brown fat.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
