Biological background
Functionally, PBRM1 antibody identifies a 1,709-amino-acid protein containing six bromodomains, two BAH domains, and one HMG-box domain that recognize acetylated lysine residues on histones. These interactions recruit the PBAF complex to specific promoters, enabling ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and transcriptional regulation. PBRM1 supports cellular homeostasis by maintaining chromatin architecture and transcriptional fidelity.
The PBRM1 gene is located on chromosome 3p21.1 and is highly expressed in kidney, liver, and lung tissues. It acts as a critical tumor suppressor by opposing oncogenic transcriptional programs, particularly in renal and hepatic cells.
Pathologically, PBRM1 mutations are frequently observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and other malignancies. Loss of PBRM1 disrupts chromatin remodeling, leading to transcriptional dysregulation and uncontrolled cell proliferation. Research using PBRM1 antibody supports studies in epigenetics, tumor suppression, and chromatin dynamics.
PBRM1 antibody is validated for western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry to detect chromatin-remodeling complex components.
Structurally, Polybromo-1 features multiple bromodomains that bind acetylated histones and a modular organization that promotes assembly with PBAF complex members such as BRD7 and SMARCA4. This antibody facilitates exploration of PBRM1's role in chromatin organization and gene silencing.
Research relevance and current trends
- Connecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).
- Considering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.
- Comparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and signal shifts at single-cell resolution.
- ELISA: support antibody-based quantification in assay formats where applicable.
Interpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Signal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.
- Species differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.
Antibody notes: Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.
