Encoded by the HJURP gene on chromosome 2q37.1, this protein is essential for centromere identity and chromosome segregation fidelity. HJURP functions as a dedicated assembly factor that ensures proper incorporation of newly synthesized CENP-A into centromeric nucleosomes during the cell cycle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStructurally, HJURP is a 748-amino-acid nuclear protein of approximately 80 kilodaltons containing an N-terminal Scm3-like domain that binds CENP-A\/H4 heterodimers and a C-terminal domain responsible for centromere targeting through interaction with Mis18 complex components. HJURP localizes exclusively to centromeres during late telophase and early G1 phase, coordinating with the Mis18alpha\/beta complex to mediate chromatin assembly and maintain centromere identity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe HJURP antibody is widely used in cell cycle, chromatin assembly, and cancer research to study centromere formation, histone variant deposition, and chromosomal stability. Western blot analysis detects an 80 kilodalton band corresponding to HJURP, while immunofluorescence reveals discrete nuclear foci at centromeric regions. This antibody provides a key tool for analyzing chromosome segregation fidelity and CENP-A deposition dynamics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunctionally, HJURP acts as the exclusive chaperone for CENP-A nucleosome assembly, ensuring the maintenance of centromeric chromatin identity across cell divisions. Loss or depletion of HJURP leads to chromosome mis-segregation, aneuploidy, and genomic instability, hallmark features of tumorigenesis. Elevated HJURP expression has been reported in various cancers and correlates with poor prognosis due to its role in promoting proliferation and mitotic progression. The HJURP antibody supports studies on chromatin inheritance, mitotic regulation, and epigenetic maintenance of centromeres.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunofluorescence:\u003c\/strong\u003e visualize subcellular distribution and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow cytometry:\u003c\/strong\u003e quantify target-positive populations and signal shifts at single-cell resolution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eELISA:\u003c\/strong\u003e support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=HJURP - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=HJURP - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=HJURP - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/HJURP - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=HJURP+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 ug\/ml \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047306060141,"sku":"FY12913","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_4a6b88fa-3718-45d9-8a25-f7a3e85a4099.jpg?v=1782237061","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/hjurp-antibody-holliday-junction-recognition-protein-bha17135815","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
