Western blot - Anti-CENPB antibody (AB25734)
Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab25734 observed at 77 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) observed at 37 kDa.
ab25734 was shown to react with CENPB in wild-type A431 cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in CENPB knockout sample.Wild-type A431 and CENPB knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab25734 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) overnight at 4°C at 1 μg/ml and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.

ab25734 staining CENPB in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab25734 at 1 μg/ml and ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with ab150120, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150081, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Also suitable in cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).
Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.

Biological function summary
CENP-B participates in the assembly of the centromere protein complex contributing to the stability and maintenance of the centromere structure during cell division. It acts as a foundation for kinetochore nucleation ensuring proper chromosome segregation. CENP-B is involved in the formation of the CENP-A nucleosome complex important for accurate chromosomal alignment and separation.
Pathways
CENP-B is essential in the mitotic spindle assembly and chromosome segregation pathways. This protein interacts with CENP-A a variant histone which integrates into centromeric nucleosomes to initiate the formation of functional kinetochores. Additionally CENP-B interacts with CENP-C facilitating the recruitment of other centromere-associated proteins needed for chromosome dynamics during mitosis.
