Expression levels, subcellular localization, and post-translational modifications vary across cell types, tissues, and disease states — factors that influence antibody-based detection and experimental design. Consult UniProt, NCBI Gene, and primary literature for current annotation of ply biology, including known isoforms, interactors, and disease-relevant expression patterns in others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eELISA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sandwich or indirect ELISA can quantify soluble target in biological fluids or culture supernatants.
