Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects centrosomal protein of 164 kDa (gene CEP164) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 164.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 164 kDa.
CEP164 is a component of the distal appendages of the mother centriole. It is required for the centriole to dock at the membrane and form a primary cilium, and it has also been linked to DNA damage checkpoint signaling; it is studied in ciliogenesis and ciliopathies.
