Anti-Bub1

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. BUB1, also known as mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the BUB1 gene. It is mapped to 2q13. BUB1 is first identified in genetic screens of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The protein is bound to kinetochores and plays a key role in the establishment of the mitotic spindle checkpoint and chromosome congression. The mitotic checkpoint kinase is evolutionary conserved in organisms as diverse as Saccharomyces cerevisiae and humans. Loss-of-function mutations or absence of BUB1 has been reported to result in aneuploidy, chromosomal instability (CIN) and premature senescence. The protein kinase BUB1 possesses versatile and distinct functions during the cell cycle, mainly in the SAC and chromosome alignment during metaphase. Protein function: Serine/threonine-protein kinase that performs 2 crucial functions during mitosis: it is essential for spindle-assembly checkpoint signaling and for correct chromosome alignment. Has a key role in the assembly of checkpoint proteins at the kinetochore, being required for the subsequent localization of CENPF, BUB1B, CENPE and MAD2L1. Required for the kinetochore localization of PLK1. Required for centromeric enrichment of AUKRB in prometaphase. Plays an important role in defining SGO1 localization and thereby affects sister chromatid cohesion. Acts as a substrate for anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C) in complex with its activator CDH1 (APC/C-Cdh1). Necessary for ensuring proper chromosome segregation and binding to BUB3 is essential for this function. Can regulate chromosome segregation in a kinetochore-independent manner. Can phosphorylate BUB3. The BUB1-BUB3 complex plays a role in the inhibition of APC/C when spindle-assembly checkpoint is activated and inhibits the ubiquitin ligase activity of APC/C by phosphorylating its activator CDC20. This complex can also phosphorylate MAD1L1. Kinase activity is essential for inhibition of APC/CCDC20 and for chromosome alignment but does not play a major role in the spindle-assembly checkpoint activity. Mediates cell death in response to chromosome missegregation and acts to suppress spontaneous tumorigenesis. Essential during early and later stages of embryonic development. Necessary for postimplantation embryogenesis and proliferation of primary embryonic fibroblasts and plays an important role in spermatogenesis and fertility. [The UniProt Consortium]
