Description | This affinity-purified antibody is directed against human Hsp90 protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with Hsp90 from human, mouse, rat, monkey, chicken and Drosophila based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity of this antibody with Hsp90 from other species is unknown. 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. Hsp90 is a member of the heat shock protein 90 family that functions as a molecular chaperone and has ATPase activity. Hsp90 family proteins are highly conserved between isoforms and species. Several signal transduction pathways depend on Hsp90 function including erbB2, steroid hormone receptors (such as androgen, progesterone, glucocorticoid, and aryl-hydrocarbon), and hypoxia sensing (Hif1alpha). Recent reports show that tumor cells are more sensitive to Hsp90 inhibition and that Hsp90 from tumor cells is more sensitive to small molecule inhibitors (eg 17AAG). The mechanism of this differential sensitivity of normal versus tumor Hsp90 is not known (although mutation has been ruled out). One possible mechanism may be differences in post-translational modification of tumor Hsp90. |
Immunogen | This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 289-300 of human Hsp90 protein. |
