Anti-MIS12 antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein MIS12 kinetochore complex component. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 205 amino acid residues and a mass of 24.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the chromosomes. It is notably widely expressed in many tissue types. A member of the Mis12 protein family, MIS12 is known to be a part of the MIS12 complex which is required for normal chromosome alignment and segregation and for kinetochore formation during mitosis. Synonyms for this target antigen include MIS12 homolog, MIS12, MIND kinetochore complex component, homolog, homolog of yeast Mis12, and protein MIS12 homolog. MIS12 gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of MIS12 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. ELISA and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
