Biological background
Biological context: RNA-binding protein that regulates alternative splicing events by binding to 5'-UGCAUGU-3' elements. Prevents binding of U2AF2 to the 3'-splice site. Regulates alternative splicing of tissue-specific exons and of differentially spliced exons during erythropoiesis (By similarity). RNA-binding protein that seems to act as a coregulatory factor of ER-alpha.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus. Cytoplasm., tissue context: Expressed in fetal brain. Highly expressed in brain and placenta. Lower levels in heart, liver, thymus, kidney and lung. Located to endothelial cells and neuronal cells of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Also detected in endothelial cells of the heart, lung and kidney. In the brain, specifically expressed in the thalamus, hippocampus and amygdala..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare HSPA6 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of HSPA6 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify HSPA6-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Heat shock 70 kDa protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPA6 gene. HSPA6 (also known as HSP70B) is a member of the HSPA (HSP70) family of heat-shock proteins which are highly conserved chaperons implicated in protein folding, protein refolding, protein transport, and protein targeting. Human HSP70B is known to be strictly inducible and shows very low or no basal expression levels in most cells. HSPA6 induction has been exploited as a reasonable biomarker of cellular stresses and its mRNA expression levels have been shown to be significantly induced against a variety of cellular stresses. This antibody was raised against the C-terminal region of human HSPA6 and it may cross-react with HSPA1 (HSP70), HSPA1L and HSPA2.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus. Cytoplasm.
- Tissue details: Expressed in fetal brain. Highly expressed in brain and placenta. Lower levels in heart, liver, thymus, kidney and lung. Located to endothelial cells and neuronal cells of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Also detected in endothelial cells of the heart, lung and kidney. In the brain, specifically expressed in the thalamus, hippocampus and amygdala.
