ARL13B (ARL2L1) HiRe Antibody - Western Blot Validated

About the Target

Build reproducible readouts by using this antibody to examine ARL13B across matched sample sets. ARL13B is a microtubule-organizing element often evaluated in cell-cycle and cilia studies. Use matched handling so differences reflect biology rather than processing.

In some datasets and protocols, it is referenced by the gene symbol ARL2L1.

Research Context

Disruption of intraflagellar transport or basal body function can produce distinct localization signatures. Define inclusion criteria and controls early so replicate sets remain interpretable as the dataset grows.

Consider these angles when interpreting target-level changes:

• co-occurrence with intraflagellar transport markers
• signal enrichment at basal bodies versus cytoplasm
• cell-cycle linked differences in localization
• changes in cilia incidence or apparent length in perturbation studies

Variant Considerations

For size-resolved readouts under denaturing conditions, this version helps you focus on expected band patterns and molecular weight regions. This matters because epitope exposure and background can vary with preparation and extraction steps. Standardize key parameters so differences reflect biology rather than handling.

For challenging targets, pairing ARL13B measurements with a second marker can clarify whether differences arise from regulation, redistribution, or shifts in cell composition within the sample.

If your study spans multiple model systems, it can help to define a shared reference condition for ARL13B so cross-sample contrasts stay meaningful.

Pair this denaturing-format format with stable controls to keep ARL13B measurements coherent over time.
