Gene Information

human ... HJURP(55355)

General description

Holliday junction recognition protein (HJURP) is a centromere protein A (CENP-A) histone chaperone and a chromatin assembly factor. It directly binds to the Holliday junction.

Immunogen

Holliday junction recognition protein recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-HJURP antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry at a dilution of 1:500 against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting at a dilution of 1:500. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Holliday junction recognition protein (HJURP) is involved in the recruitment of centromere protein A (CENP-A) into nucleosomes at replicated centromeres. It is recruited in the form of a prenucleosomal complex during the early G1 phase of the cell cycle. The centromere targeting domain (CATD) of CENP-A is needed for the recognition of the protein. Thus it is a cell-cycle regulated protein which plays an important role in the centromeric chromatin assembly.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
