UCP2 Antibodies

AND UCP2 ELISA kits, UCP2 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect UCP2, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with UCP2 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop UCP2 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to UCP2 by testing them on tissues known to express UCP2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the UCP2 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 2 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.

UCP2 Overview

Facts about Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2.

UCP2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2)

UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis. Because of this, energy is dissipated in the kind of heat.
