Scientific Data Images for Human HSP27 Antibody

Detection of Human HSP27 by Western Blot.

Western Blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line and DU145 human prostate carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/ml of Rabbit Anti-Human HSP27 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1580) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF008). A specific band was detected for HSP27 at approximately 27 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of Human HSP27 antibody by Simple WesternTM.

Detection of Human HSP27 by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for HSP27 at approximately 31 kDa (as indicated) using 0.5 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human HSP27 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1580). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.
Western Blot Shows Human HSP27 Antibody Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.

Western Blot Shows Human HSP27 Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma parental cell line and HSP27 knockout HeLa cell line (KO). PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human HSP27 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1580) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF008). A specific band was detected for HSP27 at approximately 27 kDa (as indicated) in the parental HeLa cell line, but is not detectable in knockout HeLa cell line. GAPDH (MAB5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Background: HSP27

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a family of highly conserved stress response proteins. Heat shock proteins function primarily as molecular chaperones by facilitating the folding of other cellular proteins, preventing protein aggregation or targeting improperly folded proteins to specific degradative pathways. HSPs are typically expressed at low levels under normal physiological conditions but are dramatically up-regulated in response to cellular stress. Elevated levels of HSPs have been observed in association with ischemia/reperfusion, cancer, and chronic heart failure. HSP27, also known as HSPB1, is a member of the small heat shock protein family, which also includes HSP25 and the alpha -crystallins. HSP27 forms a large oligomer and the extent of phosphorylation plays a role in determining specific functions. HSP27 also functions as an anti-apoptotic molecule, regulating apoptosis through direct interaction with key components of the apoptotic pathway. HSP27 binds and sequesters cytochrome c released from the mitochondria in response to an apoptotic stimulus. This prevents the proper assembly of the apoptosome and subsequently, the activation of procaspase-9 and procaspase-3. Full length human HSP27 shares 83% and 81% aa identity with mouse and rat HSP27, respectively.
