Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-CENPF antibody (AB5)
HeLa cells were labelled with anti-ACA and anti-CENPF (ab5). ab5 was used at a working dilution of 1/400. This image demonstrates the dramatic increase in fluorescence that occurs late in G2 cells (indicated by arrows). In the final panel DAPI is pseudo-coloured blue, while ACA and CENPF are coloured green and red respectively. 40x magnification.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-CENPF antibody (AB5)
Interpahse and Prophase HeLa cells were labelled with anti-ACA and anti-CENPF (ab5). ab5 was used at a working dilution of 1/400. This image emphasizes the redistribution of CENPF from the nuclear matrix during late G2 following entry into the initial stages of mitosis (see the accompanying image). Distinct punctate CENPF patterns proximally located in relation to the centromeres can be seen. In the final panel DAPI is pseudo-coloured blue, while ACA and CENPF are green and red respectively. 100x magnification.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CENPF antibody (AB5)
ab5 staining Human normal colon tissue. Staining is localised to nuclear compartment.
Left panel : with primary antibody at 4 ug/ml. Right panel : isotype control.
Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature : sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.

ICC/IF image of ab5 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab5, 1μg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Image-iTTM FX Signal Enhancer was used as the primary blocking agent, 5% BSA (in TBS-T) was used for all other blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red).

Target Information
CENPF (Centromere Protein F) is a key protein that participates in cell cycle regulation and chromosome movement during mitosis. It is essential for proper cell division and genomic stability. Abnormal expression of CENPF is associated with several diseases, particularly cancer, where it promotes tumor growth and metastasis. High CENPF levels are observed in cancers like colorectal cancer and are linked to worse clinical outcomes. CENPF is also involved in cardiac development and diseases such as dilated cardiomyopathy.

Biological function summary
It plays a role in chromosome segregation and spindle attachment during cell division. CENPF associates with various cellular complexes including the nuclear matrix and kinetochores. Its function is critical to maintaining stability and proper chromosome movement during mitosis. This involvement ensures accurate chromosomal alignment and segregation preventing genomic instability in daughter cells.
Pathways
CENPF plays an essential role in the regulation of the mitotic cell cycle and chromosomal dynamics. The protein interfaces with several elements in pathways like the spindle assembly checkpoint. It interacts notably with proteins such as CENP-E and other kinetochore constituents. These interactions safeguard the precise attachment of microtubules to the kinetochores facilitating proper cell cycle progression and division.
