Product Description

MA3-014 detects heat shock cognate protein 70 kDa (HSC70) from human, feline, primate, rat, and mouse tissues. This antibody displays slight cross-reactivity to HSP70. MA3-014 has been successfully used in Western blot, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and immunoprecipitation procedures By Western blot, this antibody detects a 70 kDa protein representing HSC70. By 2D gel electrophoresis, MA3-014 was found to bind strongly to HSC70 and faintly to HSP70 both before and after heat shock. Immunohistochemical staining of HSC70 in mouse spermatids/spermatozoa with MA3-014 results in staining restricted to the post acrosomal region in condensing spermatids and to the midpiece in spermatozoa. The MA3-014 antigen is mouse spermatogenic cell protein. The HSP70 family is a set of highly conserved proteins that are induced by a variety of biological stresses, including heat stress, in every organism in which the proteins have been examined. The human HSP70 family members include: HSP70, a protein which is strongly inducible in all organisms but which is also constitutively expressed in primate cells; HSP72, a 72 kDa protein that is induced exclusively under stress conditions; HSC70, or cognate protein, is a 72 kDa, constitutively expressed, protein which is involved
