Product Overview
Clone IAD-8 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes heat shock protein beta-6 (gene HSPB6) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 17.1 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 17 kDa.
HSP20 (HSPB6) is a small heat shock protein abundant in smooth, cardiac and skeletal muscle. When phosphorylated by cAMP- and cGMP-dependent kinases it promotes smooth muscle relaxation, and in the heart it has protective effects against stress, so it is studied in vascular and cardiac physiology.

Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt describes heat shock protein beta-6 as secreted and also located in the cytoplasm and nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
