MyBioSource.com's Anti-Hsp70 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody is a Rabbit monoclonal antibody. It reacts with Human, Mouse, and Rat. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blot.
Description
In cooperation with other chaperones, Hsp70s stabilize preexistent proteins against aggregation and mediate the folding of newly translated polypeptides in the cytosol as well as within organelles. These chaperones participate in all these processes through their ability to recognize nonnative conformations of other proteins. They bind extended peptide segments with a net hydrophobic character exposed by polypeptides during translation and membrane translocation, or following stress-induced damage. In case of rotavirus A infection, serves as a post-attachment receptor for the virus to facilitate entry into the cell. Essential for STUB1-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of FOXP3 in regulatory T-cells (Treg) during inflammation (PubMed: 23973223)
