Gene Information
human ... FNDC5(252995)
General description
Fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5) is expressed in the muscles. Low levels of the mRNA are also present in the kidney, liver and lung. FNDC5 is cleaved and secreted as irisin, a hormone. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 1p35.1.
Immunogen
fibronectin type III domain containing 5 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Western Blotting (1 paper)
Western Blotting (1 paper)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Fibronectin type III domain containing 5 (FNDC5) is associated with beneficial responses of exercise on cellular metabolism. Studies have indicated that it is mainly responsible for the conversion of white fat into brown fat.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Irisin is an exercise-induced myokine known to induce adipocyte browning through induction of uncoupling protein 1. Recent studies have reported that irisin is also an adipokine. However, there is limiting evidence on the role of endogenous irisin from adipocytes. In
