Anti-ELOVL5 Antibody

The Anti-ELOVL5 Antibody from Antibodies.com is a rabbit polyclonal reagent raised against the ELOVL fatty acid elongase 5 enzyme, a microsomal protein embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane that catalyzes the condensation step of long-chain fatty acid elongation. This unconjugated primary antibody was raised in rabbit against the human target and is validated for Western blot and immunohistochemistry workflows, enabling detection of endogenous ELOVL5 expression in human tissue sections and cell lysates.

ELOVL5 contributes to the biosynthesis of C18 to C22 polyunsaturated fatty acids and is implicated in disorders of lipid metabolism, including spinocerebellar ataxia type 38, making it a relevant target for neuroscience, metabolic disease, and hepatology research. Investigators studying fatty acid elongation pathways, neuronal lipid homeostasis, and PUFA biosynthesis can apply this reagent to characterize protein expression patterns and tissue distribution. Each vial contains 100 µl of polyclonal antiserum supplied in a liquid format suitable for direct dilution into standard immunoblotting and immunostaining buffers.
