Gigaxonin Antibodies

AND GAN ELISA kits, Gigaxonin Proteins

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

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Gigaxonin by testing them on tissues known to express GAN positively and negatively. Browse below to find the GAN 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.

GAN Overview

Facts about Gigaxonin.

GAN 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Gigaxonin (GAN)

Probable cytoskeletal component that directly or indirectly has an significant role in neurofilament architecture. May act as a substrate-specific adapter of an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins.

Controls degradation of TBCB. Controls degradation of MAP1B and MAP1S, and is critical for neuronal survival and maintenance.
