Anti-CEP55 Antibody Picoband®

Centrosomal protein of 55 kDa (Cep55), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CEP55 gene. Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in cranial skeletal system development; establishment of protein localization; and midbody abscission. Acts upstream of or within mitotic cytokinesis. Located in Flemming body and centrosome. Implicated in multinucleated neurons, anhydramnios, renal dysplasia, cerebellar hypoplasia and hydranencephaly.

E.coli-derived human CEP55 recombinant protein (Position: E115-K464) . Human CEP55 shares 76.3% and 78% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat CEP55, respectively.
