Anti-RAD21 antibody produced in rabbit
SIGMA/HPA020044 - Prestige Antibodies® Powered by Atlas Antibodies, affinity isolated antibody, buffered aqueous glycerol solution
Synonym: Anti-
MDL Number: MFCD04040393
Product Type: Chemical
ChIP-Exo-Seq composite graph for Anti-RAD21 (HPA020044, Lot R10566) tested in K562 cells. Strand-specific reads (blue: forward, red: reverse) and IgG controls (black: forward, grey: reverse) are plotted against the distance from a composite set of reference binding sites. The antibody exhibits robust target enrichment compared to a non-specific IgG control and precisely reveals its structural organization around the binding site. Data generated by Prof. B. F. Pugh´s Lab at Cornell University. *Please note not all antibody batches are validated for use in ChIP applications.

| Application: | All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | RAD21 (RAD21 homolog, S. pombe) plays a crucial role in normal cell division. It acts as a main component of the cohesin complex for the proper chromosomal arrangement during cell division. The protein possesses two mitotic cleavage sites for the attachment of separase. It has been shown experimentally that at the beginning of anaphase stage, a caspase-like Esp1/separase attaches to the cleavage site of RAD21 and initiate sister chromatid separation, which is an essential step for the completion of cytokinesis. During double strand DNA damage repair, it helps the two DNA strands to adhere with each other. Mutation in RAD21 causes a congenital phenotype, cohesinopathy in humans characterized with growth retardation and minor skeletal anomalies. |

| Features and Benefits: | Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section. Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments. |
