Description

Required to induce the formation and stabilization of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) tubules. They regulate membrane morphogenesis in the ER by promoting tubular ER production. They influence nuclear envelope expansion, nuclear pore complex formation and proper localization of inner nuclear membrane proteins. However each isoform have specific functions mainly depending on their tissue expression specificities.

LIG198B is able to detect human RTN4 protein in immunocytochemistry
To confirm that LIG198B mAb recognizes human RTN4 protein, immunocytochemistry on frozen cytospin preparations of V5-tagged RTN4 isoform2 expressed in HEK293T was performed. Anti-V5 was used as a positive control.
