EMI-1 Antibody

SKU: orb385841

Description

Early Mitotic Inhibitor-1 regulates mitosis by inhibiting the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC). It is a conserved F box protein containing a zinc-binding region essential for APC inhibition. The protein functions to promote cyclin A accumulation and S phase entry in somatic cells by inhibiting the APC complex. At the G1-S transition, EMI-1 is transcriptionally induced by the E2F transcription factor. Overexpression accelerates S-phase entry and can override a G1 block caused by overexpression of Cdh1 or the E2F-inhibitor p105 retinoblastoma protein (pRb). Depleting cells of EMI-1 through RNA interference prevents accumulation of cyclin A and inhibits S phase entry.

Images & Validation

• Tested Applications: IHC-P, WB
• Dilution range: Western blot: 1-2ug/ml,Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 1-2ug/ml for 30 min at RT,Prediluted IHC only format: incubate for 30 min at RT (1)
• Reactivity: Human
• Application Notes:
  Optimal dilution of the EMI-1 antibody should be determined by the researcher.1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Western blot testing of human 1) HeLa and 2) 293 lysate with EMI-1 antibody. Predicted molecular weight: 50/45 kDa (isoforms 1/2).

IHC testing of FFPE human ovarian carcinoma and EMI-1 antibody (clone FBXP5). Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in pH9 10 mM Tris with 1 mM EDTA for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min.
