SKU:: 124405
Purity:: Purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Rabbit
Immunogen:: Full length human CBX5, aa1-191 (NP_036249.1).
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2.
Extra Details:: 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. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Immunofluorescence: 10ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
