Anti-BBS5 antibody is validated on mouse tissue and recommended for immunofluorescence labeling, IHC, or western blot of materials from rodent and human tissues.
Bardet-Biedl syndrome 5 (BBS5) protein is encoded by the BBS5 gene in human. The BBSome complex is thought to function as a coat complex required for sorting of specific membrane proteins to the primary cilium. The BBS5 protein is a component of the BBSome.
Mutations in BBS5 cause Bardet–Biedl syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe pigmentary retinopathy, obesity, polydactyly, renal malformation, and mental retardation (OMIM 615983).
