Ahsa1 Rat Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: 25F2.D9]

CAT#: TA319551

Rat monoclonal anti-AHA1 antibody

Product Images

WB using anti-AHA1 antibody shows detection of a band ~42 kDa corresponding to AHA1 in A431 whole cell lysate (lane 1) and MCF-7 whole cell lysate (lane 2). A control lane where primary ahntibody was omitted from the incubation (lane C). Molecular weight markers are shown at the left. For best results, block the membrane overnight with 3% BSA in TBS followed by reaction with primary antibody diluted 1:1,000 and use HRP conjugated anti-Rabbit IgG secondary antibody diluted 1:20,000.

• 

  Anti-AHA1 monoclonal antibody was used at a 5-10 ug/mL to detect AHA1 in the seminiferous tubule of human testis (40X) showing moderate staining. Leydig cells showed faint to moderate staining. This antibody showed moderate cytoplasmic staining of a variety of epithelial tissues and lymphoid organs such as spleen and tonsil with minimal background staining. The image shows the localization of the antibody as the precipitated red signal, with a hematoxylin purple nuclear counterstain.

• Note: Activator of Hsp90 ATPase (AHA1) stimulates the inherent ATPase cycle of Hsp90, which is essential for its chaperone activity in vivo. The activation and/or stability of many of the key regulatory and signaling proteins of the eukaryotic cell depend on their interaction with the Hsp90 molecular chaperone. Hsp90 is assisted and regulated by co-chaperones that participate in an ordered series both to assist client-protein recruitment or release and to modulate progress through the ATPase coupled chaperone cycle. Structural analysis and mutagenesis show that binding of the N-terminal domain of AHA1 to Hsp90 promotes a conformational switch in the middle-segment catalytic loop (aa 370–390) of Hsp90 that exposes the catalytic Arg380 and enables its interaction with ATP in the N-terminal nucleotide-binding domain of the chaperone. Recent studies show that AHA1 modulates Hsp90-dependent stability of the folding of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Down-regulation of AHA1 rescues misfolding of CFTR in cystic fibrosis.
