Anti-Phospho-PRC1 (T481) Antibody

Protein Regulator of cytokinesis 1 (PRC1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PRC1 gene and is involved in cytokinesis. This gene is mapped to chromosome 15q26.1 based on an alignment of the PRC1 sequence with the genomic sequence. PRC1 protein is expressed at relatively high levels during S and G2/M phases of the cell cycle before dropping dramatically after mitotic exit and entrance into G1 phase. It is located in the nucleus during interphase, becomes associated with the mitotic spindle in a highly dynamic manner during anaphase, and localizes to the cell midbody during cytokinesis. And this protein has been shown to be a substrate of several cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) . It is necessary for polarizing parallel microtubules and concentrating the factors responsible for contractile ring assembly. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
