SPINSTER antibody is human specific. At least four isoforms of SPINSTER are known to exist. This antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the spinster family of proteins.
Purification
SPINSTER antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
SPINSTER antibody was raised against an 18 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human SPINSTER. The immunogen is located within the first 50 amino acids of SPINSTER.

SPINSTER, also known as SPNS1 or SPIN1, is a 528 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein that localizes to the inner mitochondrial membrane and belongs to the spinster subfamily of the major facilitator superfamily (1). SPINSTER interacts with Bcl-x and Bcl-2 and, via this interaction, is thought to be involved in necrotic or autophagic cell death (2). The related protein SPNS2 is critical for the normal lymphocyte localization and mammalian immune system function (1,3).
