Rabbit HSP20 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-HSP20 antibody
HSP20 Antibody
Phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
IHC: 1:50-1:200
Western Blot (WB)
(Western blot analysis of HSP20 expression in whole cell lysates, The lane on the left is treated with the antigen-specific peptide.)
Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
(MBS9601667 at 1/100 staining Human breast cancer tissue by IHC-P. The sample was formaldehyde fixed and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step in citrate buffer was performed. The sample was then blocked and incubated with the antibody for 1.5 hours at 22 degree C. An HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit antibody was used as the secondary.)
Function: Small heat shock protein which functions as a molecular chaperone probably maintaining denatured proteins in a folding-competent state. Seems to have versatile functions in various biological processes. Plays a role in regulating muscle function such as smooth muscle vasorelaxation and cardiac myocyte contractility. May regulate myocardial angiogenesis implicating KDR. Overexpression mediates cardioprotection and angiogenesis after induced damage. Stabilizes monomeric YWHAZ thereby supporting YWHAZ chaperone-like activity.
Subunit Structure: Homodimer. Small heat shock proteins form high molecular mass oligomers containing variable number of monomers; these oligomers display a very flexible quaternary structure easily exchanging their subunits. Heterooligomer with HSPB1; formed through oligomerization of HSPB1:HSBP6 dimers; subunit exchange leads to formation of at least two different heterooligomeric complexes, differing in variable quantities of HSPB1 and HSPB6 homodimers in addition to HSPB1:HSPB6 heterodimers. Heterooligomer with CRYAB; large heterooligomers consist of CRYAB homodimers and HSPB5:HSPB6 heterodimers but lacking HSPB6 homodimers. Interacts with BAG3. Interacts (phosphorylated) with YWHAZ. Interacts with PDE4A and PDE4D; required for maintenance of the non-phosphorylated state of HSPB6 under basal conditions. Interacts with KDR. Interacts with PRKD1.
Post-translational Modifications: The N-terminus is blocked. Phosphorylated at Ser-16 by PKA and probably PKD1K; required to protect cardiomyocytes from apoptosis.
Similarity: Belongs to the small heat shock protein (HSP20) family.

Product Notes
The HSP20 hspb6 (Catalog #AAA9601667) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The HSP20 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HSP20 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 IHC: 1:50-1:200. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HSP20 hspb6 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 "HSP20, Polyclonal 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.Precautions
