Cullins (1, 2, 3, 4a, 5 and 7) are a family of proteins that assemble a large number of ubiquitin ligases to catalyse polyubiquitiation, as well as binding to various specific factors to recruit substrates. Cullin 5 (CUL 5) is a component of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes and it is involved in proteosomal degradation of p53/TP53 stimulated by adenovirus E1B-55 kD protein. It may also form a cell surface vasopresin receptor and it may play a role in brast tumorigenesis.
Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
ELISA: 1:500
Western Blot: 1:1000
Immunocytochemistry: 1:100
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
