BAF Complex IHC Antibody Sampler Kit #93589

    Product Information

    Product Description

    The BAF Complex IHC Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of detecting BAF complex members in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples.

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Each antibody in the BAF Complex IHC Antibody Sampler Kit detects endogenous levels of its target protein.

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with synthetic peptides corresponding to residues surrounding Gly1293 of human ARID1A/BAF250A protein, Ala1320 of human ARID1B/BAF250B protein, Pro57 of human Brg1 protein, Gly264 of human BRM protein, Leu120 of human SMARCB1/BAF47 protein, Gln394 of human SS18 protein, and surrounding the fusion site of human SS18-SSX protein. Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the amino terminus of human PBRM1/BAF180 protein.

    Background

    The modulation of chromatin structure is an essential component in the regulation of transcriptional activation and repression. Modifications can be made by at least two evolutionarily conserved strategies, through the disruption of histone-DNA contacts by ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers, or by histone tail modifications including methylation and acetylation. One of the four classes of ATP-dependent histone remodelers is the SWI/SNF complex, the central catalytic subunit of which is Brg1 or the highly related protein hBRM (1). This SWI/SNF complex contains varying subunits but its association with either Brg1 or hBRM remains constant (1). SWI/SNF complexes have been shown to regulate gene activation, cell growth, the cell cycle, and differentiation (1). Brg1/hBRM have been shown to regulate transcription through enhancing transcriptional activation of glucocorticoid receptors (2). Although usually associated with transcriptional activation, Brg1/hBRM have also been found in complexes associated with transcriptional repression, including HDACs, Rb, and Tif1β (3-5). Brg1/hBRM plays a vital role in the regulation of gene transcription during early mammalian embryogenesis. In addition, Brg1/hBRM also plays a role as a tumor suppressor and Brg1 is mutated in several tumor cell lines (6-8).
