Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of HeLa cells labelling Bmi1 with purified ab126783 at 1/500. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. ab150077, an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/500) was used as the secondary antibody.

Biological function summary
The functions of Bmi1 extend into maintaining stem cell renewal and differentiation. It acts as part of the Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) partnering with other proteins to regulate gene expression by altering chromatin structure. Bmi1 protein regulates cell proliferation and inhibits senescence by repressing the INK4a/ARF locus which encodes tumor suppressor proteins like p16INK4a and p14ARF.
Pathways
Bmi1 plays significant roles in processes such as the DNA damage response and the self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells. It is involved in the modulation of the Wnt and Notch signaling pathways. Bmi1 protein interacts closely with proteins such as CBX2 and RNF2 within these pathways affecting the transcriptional landscape that governs cell fate decisions.
