Function

Key regulator of cytokinesis that cross-links antiparrallel microtubules at an average distance of 35 nM. Essential for controlling the spatiotemporal formation of the midzone and successful cytokinesis. Required for KIF14 localization to the central spindle and midbody. Required to recruit PLK1 to the spindle. Stimulates PLK1 phosphorylation of RACGAP1 to allow recruitment of ECT2 to the central spindle. Acts as an oncogene for promoting bladder cancer cells proliferation, apoptosis inhibition and carcinogenic progression (PubMed:17409436).

Notes

ab238427 is the carrier-free version of Anti-PRC1 antibody [EP1513Y] ab51248.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

PRC1 also known as Protein Regulator of Cytokinesis 1 affiliates with cellular division mechanics. This protein weighs approximately 72 kDa. PRC1 localizes in the nucleus during the interphase and redistributes to the spindle midzone during mitosis. It plays a role in the stabilization of microtubules facilitating proper cytokinesis. Expression of PRC1 occurs in several human tissues notably in dividing cells.

Biological function summary

PRC1 functions in accurately regulating actin and microtubule interaction during cell division. As a part of the centralspindlin complex it ensures correct spindle midzone formation and serves as a marker for the cleavage furrow. Cellular events coordinated by PRC1 involve chromosomal segregation and rapidly proliferating cells express it to maintain integrity during mitotic processes.

Pathways

PRC1 contributes significantly to the mitotic spindle checkpoint. It participates in the Aurora B kinase pathway interacting with proteins like KIF4A and PLK1. This protein ensures the transition from metaphase to anaphase is precise preventing aneuploidy. As a pathway node PRC1 manages signal transduction facilitating cell cycle regulation and fidelity.

Associated diseases and disorders

Dysregulation of PRC1 expression associates with cancer notably prostate and breast cancer. Tumor cells often display altered PRC1 activity linked to abnormal cell proliferation. The protein interacts with the oncogenic proteins such as p53 indicating a role in tumorigenesis and progression. Exploring therapeutic strategies targeting PRC1 could provide insights into cancer treatment.

    Anti-PRC1 antibody [EP1513Y] ab51248 staining PRC1 in human breast cancer cells by ICC/IF. The cells were paraformaldehyde fixed and blocked in 1% serum for 1 hour at 37°C without permeation step. The primary antibody was diluted 1/100 (PBS) and incubated with sample for 1 hour at 20°C. An Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated donkey polyclonal to rabbit IgG, diluted 1/200 was used as secondary.
