General description

GroEL protein belongs to the folding chaperonin family. It is a 58.3 kDa protein with apical, intermediate and equatorial functional domains.

Specificity

The antibody does not cross-react with GroES and bovine HSP 70.

Immunogen

purified recombinant GroEL produced in E. coli.

Application

Anti-GroEL antibody produced in rabbit has been used as positive control in histology and immunohistochemistry of Dirofilaria immitis, nematode worms and in the western blot analysis of the HeLa cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

GroEL, together with GroES, in the presence of ATP, assists in protein folding. Co-expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase with GroEL/GroES promotes folding and higher production of protein in soluble form. GroES and GroEL bind to the protein substrate, enclosing it in a cage like fold. The target protein after folding gets dissociated from the cage and is accompanied with hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide

Bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs) are key elements of regulatory networks that modulate gene expression. The sRNA RydC of Salmonella sp. and Escherichia coli is an example of this class of riboregulators. Like many other sRNAs, RydC bears a 'seed' region

The apparent mislocalization or excretion of cytoplasmic proteins is a commonly observed phenomenon in both bacteria and eukaryotes. However, reports on the mechanistic basis and the cellular function of this so-called "nonclassical protein secretion" are limited. Here we report that
