Preparation and Storage

Background: CNAP1/CEP250

CEP250 (also known as CNAP1) is a large centrosome-associated protein that plays a crucial role in centrosome duplication and organization during cell division. Centrosomes are organelles play an essential role in cell division, cell polarity, and intracellular transport. In most animal cells, centrosomes consist of a pair of centrioles surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM).CEP250/CNAP1 is a critical component of the PCM and is required for centrosome duplication and maturation. It forms a bridge between the centrioles and PCM and recruits other PCM components to the centrosome. Phosphorylation of CEP250/CNAP1 may regulate association/dissociation from centrosome. During M phase of mitosis, it is phosphorylated by NEK2, which may trigger the dissociation from the mitotic centrosome. This antibody detects CEP250/CNAP1 phosphorylated at Ser2421.
