Related Product Information for anti-HP1-alpha antibody
Component of heterochromatin that recognizes and binds histone H3 tails methylated at ‘Lys-9’ (H3K9me), leading to epigenetic repression. In contrast, it is excluded from chromatin when ‘Tyr-41’ of histone H3 is phosphorylated (H3Y41ph). Can interact with lamin-B receptor (LBR). This interaction can contribute to the association of the heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane. Involved in the formation of functional kinetochore through interaction with MIS12 complex proteins.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a highly conserved nonhistone protein, which is a member of the heterochromatin protein family. The protein is enriched in the heterochromatin and associated with centromeres. The protein has a single N-terminal chromodomain which can bind to histone proteins via methylated lysine residues, and a C-terminal chromo shadow-domain (CSD) which is responsible for the homodimerization and interaction with a number of chromatin-associated nonhistone proteins. The encoded product is involved in the formation of functional kinetochore through interaction with essential kinetochore proteins. The gene has a pseudogene located on chromosome 3. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes

The HP1-alpha cbx5 (Catalog #AAA475136) is an Antibody produced from Mouse Source: Human and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-HP1-alpha Mouse mAb reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HP1-alpha can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immmunoflourescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin/Frozen (IHC-P/F). WB: 1:1000 ICC: 1:300. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HP1-alpha cbx5 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HP1-alpha, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
