Huntingtin Associated Protein 1B (Hap1B) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibodies

Applications

  • Western blot
  • Immunoprecipitation
  • Immunocytochemistry

Specificity

Huntingtin Associated Protein 1B isoforms. No detectable cross reactivity to other proteins by Western blot.

Subtype

Rabbit Polyclonal

Technical Summary

Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded trinucleotide repeat in the IT15 gene. Huntington Associated Protein 1 (Hap1) was initially identified as a protein that interacts with huntingtin, the protein encoded by the gene responsible for the development of HD.

These antibodies can be used to specifically detect Hap-1B by immunoblotting or immunocytochemistry. They have been shown to specifically detect Hap-1B from mouse, and rat brain tissue. These antibodies can also be used for immunoprecipitation of Hap-1B from rat brain tissue.
