Background: BMI1 has been reported as an oncogene by regulating p16 and p19, which are cell cycle inhibitor genes. BMI1 knockout in mice results in defects in hematopoiesis, skeletal patterning, neurological functions, and development of the cerebellum. It is a component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development.[1] BMI1 is necessary for efficient self-renewing cell divisions of adult hematopoietic stem cells as well as adult peripheral and central nervous system neural stem cells.[2] BMI1 is also thought to inhibit ageing in neurons through the suppression of p53.[3]

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a ring finger protein that is major component of the polycomb group complex 1 (PRC1). This complex functions through chromatin remodeling as an essential epigenetic repressor of multiple regulatory genes involved in embryonic development and self-renewal in somatic stem cells. This protein also plays a central role in DNA damage repair. This gene is an oncogene and aberrant expression is associated with numerous cancers and is associated with resistance to certain chemotherapies. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the upstream COMM domain containing 3 (COMMD3) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

Uniprot Description

Function: Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. In the PRC1 complex, it is required to stimulate the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity of RNF2/RING2. Ref.11 Ref.13 Ref.16

Subunit structure: Component of a PRC1-like complex. Interacts with RING1 and RING2

By similarity. Interacts vwith CBX7 and CBX8. Interacts with SPOP. Part of a complex consisting of BMI1, CUL3 and SPOP. Interacts with E4F1. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.14 Ref.15 Ref.16

Subcellular location: Nucleus. Cytoplasm Ref.13 Ref.15.

Post-translational modification: Monoubiquitinated

By similarity. May be polyubiquitinated; which does not lead to proteasomal degradation.

Miscellaneous: The hPRC-H complex purification reported by Ref.9 probably presents a mixture of different PRC1-like complexes.

Sequence similarities: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.

Product Notes

The BMI1 bmi1 (Catalog #AAA355063) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Polycomb complex protein BMI-1 antibody reacts with Human, mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Polycomb complex protein BMI-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin, Immunocytochemistry (ICC). WB (1:1000-5000); IHC-P (1:200); ICC (1:500) Other applications have not been tested the optimal dilutions should be determined by end user. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BMI1 bmi1 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 "Polycomb complex protein BMI-1, 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.
