Anti-Cyclophilin B antibody, Mouse monoclonal

Description

• General description: Cyclophilin B belongs to the cyclophilin family of immunophilins. It is present in the cytoplasm, nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/golgi and plasma membrane. The protein can also be secreted from cells. The associated gene is mapped to human chromosome 15q22.
• Immunogen: synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal region of human Cyclophilin B, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is identical in mouse, monkey and canine and differs by one amino acid in rat Cyclophilin B.
• Application: Monoclonal Anti-Cyclophilin B antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunoblotting and immunofluorescence.
• Biochem/physiol Actions: Cyclophilin B (CypB) is involved in inflammation, viral infection and cancer. It also plays an important role in protecting cells against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress via its PPIase activity. Mutations in the PPIB gene give rise to recessive forms of osteogenesis imperfecta and knockdown of this gene decreases cell growth, proliferation and migration.
• Physical form: Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
