Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

Application 
| WB, E, I, LCI |
| Application Note | This protein A purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, immunofluorescence microscopy and western blotting. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 26-31 kDa in size corresponding to human CENP-Q by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. |
| Physical State | Liquid (sterile filtered) |
| Buffer | 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2 |
| Immunogen | This protein A purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with full-length human CENP-Q recombinant protein. |
| Preservative | 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide |
| Gene ID | 55166 |
|---|---|
| Other Names | 55166 |
| Purity | This product was protein A purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography using protein A coupled to agarose beads. This antibody is specific for human CENP-Q protein. A BLAST analysis of the full length sequence was used to suggest partial cross-reactivity with CENP-Q based on the following percentage homologies: macaque (91%), horse (76%), bovine (74%), dog (73%), swine (71%), mouse (65%) and rat (60%). Cross-reactivity with CENP-Q from other sources has not been determined. |
| Storage Condition | Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
| Precautions Note | This product is for research use only and is not intended for therapeutic or diagnostic applications. |
| Name | CENPQ |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | C6orf139 |
| Function | Component of the CENPA-CAD (nucleosome distal) complex, a complex recruited to centromeres which is involved in assembly of kinetochore proteins, mitotic progression and chromosome segregation. May be involved in incorporation of newly synthesized CENPA into centromeres via its interaction with the CENPA-NAC complex (PubMed:16622420). Plays an important role in chromosome congression and in the recruitment of CENP-O complex (which comprises CENPO, CENPP, CENPQ and CENPU), CENPE and PLK1 to the kinetochores (PubMed:25395579). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere. Note=Localizes exclusively in the centromeres. The CENPA-CAD complex is probably recruited on centromeres by the CENPA-NAC complex |

Background
This antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration between Rockland and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. Cenp-Q (also known as centromere protein Q or CENPQ) is a nuclear/centromeric protein that is one of the critical components that constitutes the CENP-O complex at the kinetochores and appears to stabilize PBIP1/CENP-U(50)/MLF1IP in the complex. This complex is important for proper recruitment of polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) to the mitotic kinetochores. A failure in this process results in improper microtubule attachment to the kinetochores and chromosome missegregation that ultimately lead to aneuploidy.
