Mouse Anti-HP-1α Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (2G2)

Background:

CBX5 (chromobox 5) 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. CBX5 has a pseudogene located on chromosome 3. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.

The antibody detects endogenous HP-1α protein.
