Uroplakin-2 Antibodies

AND UPK2 ELISA kits, Uroplakin-2 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Uroplakin-2, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Uroplakin-2 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Uroplakin-2 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Uroplakin-2 by testing them on tissues known to express UPK2 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the UPK2 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.

UPK2 Overview

Facts about Uroplakin-2.

UPK2 3D structure. Source: alphafold

Uroplakin-2 (UPK2)

Part of the asymmetric unit membrane (AUM); a highly specialized biomembrane elaborated by terminally differentiated urothelial cells. May play an essential role in regulating the assembly of the AUM (By similarity).
