TCP1 Antibody (MA5-45720) in ICC/IF
Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis using human heat shocked cervical cancer cells. Fixation involved 2% Formaldehyde for 20 min at RT. Samples were incubated with TCP1-alpha monoclonal antibody (Product # MA5-45720) at 1:100 for 12 hours at 4°C, followed by R-PE Goat Anti-Rat (yellow) at 1:200 for 2 hours at RT. Counterstain used was DAPI (blue) nuclear stain at 1:40,000 for 2 hours at RT. Localization: Cytoplasm. Centrosome. Magnification: 100x. (A) DAPI (blue) nuclear stain. (B) Anti-TCP1-alpha antibody.

Product Specific Information
1 µg/mL of MA5-45720 was sufficient for detection of TCP1 alpha in 20 µg of 3T3 cell lysate by colorimetric immunoblot analysis using Goat anti-rat IgG:HRP as the secondary antibody.|Detects approximately 60kDa. Also detects approximately 92kDa. Cross reactivity with human HSP60 has been observed with this antibody in immunoblot analysis. Reacts weakly with Saccharomyces cerevisiae, consistent with the epitope sequence being AKLRS (instead of AKLRA). In C. elegans, it reacts with TCP1 alpha and another CCT subunit. In plants, it recognizes TCP1 of Pisum sativum, and the sequence of Arabidopsis thalania TCP1 over the region of the epitope AKLRA. It has also been shown that it reacts with a subunit of a specialized chaperonin which folds phytochrome.
Target Information
The T Complex Polypeptide 1 (TCP-1) is approximately 60 kDa protein constitutively expressed in almost all eukaryotic cells, and is upregulated during spermatogenesis. It is found in the cytosol as a subunit of a hetero-oligomeric chaperone that is known to be involved in the folding of actin and tubulin. The family of proteins termed chaperonins act to recognize and stabilize polypeptide intermediates during folding, assembly and disassembly, and share many characteristics with Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70) including high abundance, induction by environmental stress, and ATPase activity. The chaperonin family includes the mitochondrial HSP60, Escherichia coli GroEL, the plastid Rubisco-subunit binding protein, and the archaebacterial protein TF55. The TCP-1 sequence shows nearly 40% identity to TF55, but only minimal similarity to HSP60 and GroEL.
