Biological background
Biological context: May contribute to the correct positioning of tight junctions during the establishment of polarity in epithelial cells.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Cell membrane. Single-pass membrane protein. Postsynaptic cell membrane., tissue context: Predominantly expressed in testis and placenta as well as in many cell lines, including epithelial cell lines..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare EPB41L5 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of EPB41L5 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify EPB41L5-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
