CBX5 antibody
Rabbit anti Human CBX5 antibody recognizes CBX5, also known as heterochromatin protein 1 homolog alpha, HP1-alpha, chromobox protein homolog 5, antigen p25 or epididymis luminal protein 25.
The CBX5 gene encodes a highly conserved nonhistone protein, 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).
Rabbit anti Human CBX5 antibody detects a band of 26 kDa. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.
