Anti-Ubiquitin (Polyubiquitin-B)

Ubiquitin (originally, ubiquitous immunopoietic polypeptide) is a small regulatory protein that has been found in almost all tissues (ubiquitously) of eukaryotic organisms. Its gene is mapped to 16p 13.3. The ubiquitin protein itself consists of 76 amino acids and has a molecular mass of about 8.5 kDa. Ubiquitin binds to proteins and labels them for destruction. It directs protein recycling and also direct proteins to other locations in the cell, where they control other protein and cell mechanisms. UniProt Number: P0CG47, Gene ID: UBB, Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin). Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Handling: Store at -20?C for one year. After reconstitution, store at 4?C for one month. Can also be aliquoted and stored frozen at -20?C for long term., Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
