The 70 kDa heat shock proteins (HSP70s) are a highly conserved family of stress response proteins. The HSP70 family of proteins contains both heat/stress inducible and constitutively expressed members known as heat shock cognate proteins. Heat Shock 70 kDa Protein 8 (HSPA8), also known as Heat Shock Cognate Protein 71 (HSC71), HSC70, HSP73, HSPA10 and LPS-associated protein 1 (LAP1), is a 646 amino acid (aa) heat shock cognate protein. Many HSPs function as molecular chaperones, facilitating the folding of other cellular proteins. HSPA8 plays an important role in cells by transiently associating with nascent polypeptides to facilitate correct folding. HSPA8 is a ubiquitously expressed protein and rapidly translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus in response to heat shock. Two alternatively spliced variants have been identified. This antibody detects isoform 1 but not isoform 2 (HSC54). Human HSPA8 shares greater than 99% identity with mouse and rat HSPA8.

Detection of Human/Mouse/Rat HSPA8/HSC71 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, and L6 rat myoblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat HSPA8/HSC71 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4148) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for HSPA8/HSC71 at approximately 71 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted using Immunoblot Buffer Group 2.HSPA8/HSC71 in Mouse Intestine.
HSPA8/HSC71 was detected in immersion fixed frozen sections of mouse intestine using Goat Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat HSPA8/HSC71 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4148) at 3 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC004). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to epithelial cells in intestinal glands.
