The C8orf44 antibody is designed to target the protein encoded by the C8orf44 gene (Chromosome 8 Open Reading Frame 44), a poorly characterized gene located on human chromosome 8. While the precise biological function of C8orf44 remains unclear, studies suggest its potential involvement in cellular processes such as protein trafficking, signal transduction, or transcriptional regulation. The gene is conserved across vertebrates, implying evolutionary significance. C8orf44 antibodies are primarily utilized in research to detect protein expression, localization, and interactions via techniques like Western blotting, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF). Emerging evidence links dysregulation of C8orf44 to diseases, including certain cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders, though mechanistic insights are limited. Antibody validation often includes specificity tests (e.g., knockout cell lines) to ensure minimal cross-reactivity. Commercial C8orf44 antibodies are typically polyclonal or monoclonal, derived from rabbit or mouse hosts. Researchers emphasize the need for further studies to clarify C8orf44's role in health and disease, positioning these antibodies as critical tools for exploratory studies in molecular biology and translational medicine.
