KLHL5 Antibody

The kelch-repeat protein family is a recently found new kind of actin-binding protein. It is characterized by tandemly arranged motifs of about 50 amino acids. Most members of the kelch-repeat family were cytoskeletal proteins implicated in various cellular processes, such as actin cytoskeleton interaction, cytoplasmic sequestration of transcription factors and cell morphology. During the large-scale sequencing analysis of a human fetal brain cDNA library we found a novel kelch-like protein gene 5, KLHL5, KLHL5 has high identity with Drosophila kelch protein and many other family members. A novel splicing variants of KLHL5, named KLHL5b and the expression pattern of KLHL5b in many tissues.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store KLHL5 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

KLHL5 antibody can be used for detection of KLHL5 by ELISA at 1:312500. KLHL5 antibody can be used for detection of KLHL5 by western blot at 5.0 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
