Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human NCAPH
Application
Anti-NCAPH antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 0.25μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
NCAPH (Non-SMC condensin I complex, subunit H) also referred to as HCAP-H, BRRN1 or CAPH belongs to barr gene family and is a regulatory subunit of the condensin complex. It facilitates the conversion of interphase chromatin into mitotic-like condense chromosomes. Caspase-3 gets stimulated and cleaves Cap-H, a subunit of condensin I during prolonged mitotic arrest. This leads to a loss of condensin I complex at the chromosomes and alters the chromosomal integrity. Subsequently DNA fragmentation occurs by caspase-activated Dnase (CAD) that drives the cell towards mitotic death. Additionally, it facilitates for the structural integrity of centromeric heterochromatin during mitosis.

Mitotic death is a major form of cell death in cancer cells that have been treated with chemotherapeutic drugs. However, the mechanisms underlying this form of cell death is poorly understood. Here, we report that the loss of chromosome integrity
Molecular and cellular biology, 25(20), 8971-8984 (2005-10-04)
During cell division, chromatin undergoes structural changes essential to ensure faithful segregation of the genome. Condensins, abundant components of mitotic chromosomes, are known to form two different complexes, condensins I and II. To further examine the role of condensin I
