SPO11 Antibody

Meiotic recombination and chromosome segregation require the formation of double-strand breaks (DSBs) in paired chromosome homologs. During meiosis in yeast, a meiotic recombination protein is covalently-linked to the 5' end of DSBs and is essential for the formation of DSBs. SPO11 is similar in sequence and conserved features to the yeast meiotic recombination protein. It belongs to the TOP6A protein family. Meiotic recombination and chromosome segregation require the formation of double-strand breaks (DSBs) in paired chromosome homologs. During meiosis in yeast, a meiotic recombination protein is covalently-linked to the 5' end of DSBs and is essential for the formation of DSBs. The protein encoded by this gene is similar in sequence and conserved features to the yeast meiotic recombination protein. The encoded protein belongs to the TOP6A protein family. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of only two of them have been described.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store SPO11 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

SPO11 antibody can be used for detection of SPO11 by ELISA at 1:1562500. SPO11 antibody can be used for detection of SPO11 by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
