Gene Information

human ... HSPB1(3315)

General description

Heat shock protein family B (small) member (HSPB1) is a member of the small heat shock proteins (HSPs) family. It is ubiquitously expressed and is highly produced in heart and skeletal muscles. HSPB1 is located in the cytosol and nucleus. This protein is recognized as a component of the nuclear speckles. HSPB1 gene is located on the human chromosome 7q11.23.

Immunogen

Heat shock protein beta-1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Heat shock protein family B (small) member (HSPB1) serves as an ATP-independent molecular chaperone. It can block the irreversible aggregation of bound substrates in vitro. HSPB1 plays a key role in the remodeling of cytoskeleton during embryogenesis. HSPB1 gene mutations lead to distal hereditary motor neuropathy type II (dHMN II) or Charcot-Marie-tooth disease type 2F (CMT2F). It is involved in metastasis formation. Due to its cytoprotective properties, HSPB1 plays a role in oncogenesis and resistance to anti-cancer therapy.

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.
