Biological background
Protein function (datasheet): Eukaryotic CPN10 homolog which is essential for mitochondrial protein biogenesis, together with CPN60. Binds to CPN60 in the presence of Mg-ATP and suppresses the ATPase activity of the latter.
Scientific background (datasheet): HSPE1 (heat shock 10kDa protein 1 (chaperonin 10)), also called CPN10, GROES, CHAPERONIN 10 HOMOLOG, cpn10 HOMOLOG or HSP10, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPE1 gene. GroES is a heptameric ring of identical 10.4-kD subunits that binds to each end of GroEL to form a symmetric, functional heterodimer. The HSP10 gene consists of 4 exons. The HSPE1 gene is mapped to 2q33.1. The transcriptional activity of the promoter fragment in the HSP60 ion is approximately twice that in the HSP10 ion under normal growth conditions; upon heat shock, promoter activity in either ion increased by a factor of approximately 12. Mutational drifts performed in vitro with 4 different enzymes indicated the GroES overexpression doubled the number of accumulating mutations, and promoted the folding of enzyme variants carrying mutations in the protein core and/or mutations with higher destabilizing effects.
Cellular localization (datasheet): Mitochondrion matrix.
Sequence similarities (datasheet): Belongs to the heat shock protein 70 family.
Research relevance and current trends
- Commonly studied in contexts related to Cancer,Chaperones,Heat Shock Proteins,Metabolism,Mitochondrial,Mitochondrial Markers,Mitochondrial Metabolism,Pathways and Processes,Protein Trafficking,Signal Transduction.
- Supports comparative expression analysis across conditions, genotypes, or treatments when paired with appropriate controls.
- Useful for confirming target presence and subcellular distribution using orthogonal readouts (e.g., microscopy vs. immunoblotting).
Common research applications
- Western blot (WB): Compare relative target abundance and apparent size/isoforms across samples; interpret bands in light of expected MW and potential PTMs.
- ELISA: Measure target abundance in compatible matrices using a standard-curve readout; ensure dilution linearity and appropriate controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Assess tissue distribution and cell-type patterns; interpret staining with appropriate negative controls and antigen context.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Visualize subcellular localization and co-localization patterns; consider fixation/permeabilization compatibility and controls.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify target-positive populations in single-cell suspensions; pair with viability and isotype/FMO controls conceptually.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms, post-translational modifications, and processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or localization.
- Cross-reactivity (datasheet): No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Use appropriate positive and negative controls (e.g., KO/KD, blocking peptide, or isotype controls) to support specificity interpretation.
As a polyclonal antibody, this reagent may recognize multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may require careful specificity controls.
