<strong>Drosophila</strong> <strong>HP1</strong> <strong>Polyclonal</strong> <strong>Antibody</strong><br />
Catalog Number: <strong>PRB</strong>-<strong>291C</strong><br />
Available Size: 0.2 mL<br />
Specificity:<br />
The <strong>Drosophila</strong> <strong>HP1</strong> protein, product of the Su(var)2-5 locus, is a dose-dependent regulator of gene silencing. <strong>HP1</strong> interacts<br />
with compacted chromatin (heterochromatin) via its chromodomain (CD). <strong>HP1</strong> antisera staining of polytene chromosomes<br />
decorates pericentric heterochromaticn and a banded heterochromatic pattern on the small 4th chromosome. The <strong>HP1</strong> protein<br />
is also known to interact with a number of transcriptional regulators via its chromoshadow domain (CSD), suggesting that <strong>HP1</strong> is<br />
a bridging factor that couples particular chromatin structures with effects on gene expression. This antibody was raised against<br />
full-length recombinant <strong>Drosophila</strong> <strong>HP1</strong> protein, and has been shown to specifically stain <strong>Drosophila</strong> polytene chromosomes.<br />
Uses:<br />
This antibody is effective in immunostaining.<br />
Suggested Working Dilution:<br />
The optimal working dilution should be determined for each specific assay condition. This antibody is sold for laboratory<br />
research use only, not for human or in-vivo use. Covance antibodies may not be resold or modified for resale without prior<br />
written approval.<br />

Storage:<br />
Store at -20°C. Upon initial thawing, apportion into working<br />
aliquots and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw<br />
cycles to prevent denaturing the antibody. For long-term<br />
storage, keep the antibody at -80°C.<br />
