Heat Shock Protein 25 (Heat Shock 25kD Protein, HSP 25, HSP25, Actin Polymerization Inhibitor, 25kD IAP, Heat Shock 27kD Protein, HSP 27, Heat Shock Protein beta-1, HSPB1)

The heat-shock proteins (HSPs) belong to a larger group of polypeptides, the stress proteins, that are induced in various combinations in response to environmental challenges and developmental transitions. Heat-shock 27kD protein1also knows as HSPB. Synthesis of the small (27kD) HSP has been shown to be correlated with the acquisition of thermotolerance. HSP27 gene is mapped to 7q11.23. Mutant small heat-shock protein 27 causes axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and distal hereditary motor neuropathy. Heat shock protein 27 prevents cellular polyglutamine toxicity and suppresses the increase of reactive oxygen species caused by huntingtin.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Western Blot, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 0.5-2ug/ml\nImmunohistochemistry (paraffin, frozen): 1-2ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nLyophilized powder may be stored at -20 degrees C.
