PSMA6 contributes to the structural organization of the proteasome's alpha ring, which controls access to the catalytic chamber that degrades misfolded, oxidized, or regulatory proteins. The PSMA6 antibody is used in studies of proteostasis, ubiquitin signaling, and stress response pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePSMA6 is encoded by the PSMA6 gene located on human chromosome 14q13.2. The protein is approximately 27 kilodaltons and forms one of seven alpha subunits that compose the outer rings of the cylindrical 20S core particle. Together with beta subunits, these structures assemble into the functional 26S proteasome when associated with regulatory particles such as PA700 or PA28. PSMA6 is critical for maintaining proteolytic efficiency and specificity by regulating substrate entry and gate opening.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe PSMA6 antibody detects a 27 kilodalton protein by western blot and reveals strong cytoplasmic and nuclear staining, consistent with proteasome distribution. PSMA6 contributes to the degradation of short-lived proteins involved in cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and signal transduction. Through the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS), PSMA6 supports protein quality control and adaptive responses to oxidative or metabolic stress.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMutations or altered expression of PSMA6 have been linked to cardiovascular and autoimmune diseases, as well as cancer. Overexpression in tumors enhances proteasomal activity and supports rapid cell proliferation, while reduced expression leads to accumulation of damaged proteins and cellular dysfunction. In immune cells, PSMA6 influences antigen processing and presentation, shaping adaptive immune responses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause of its fundamental role in protein degradation, PSMA6 serves as a biomarker for proteasome activity and a potential target for therapeutic intervention in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.\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\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=PSMA6 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PSMA6 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=PSMA6 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/PSMA6 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PSMA6+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":53047291707757,"sku":"FY12545","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_836d6637-9754-4e65-8607-ad47764408c6.jpg?v=1782237015","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/psma6-antibody-proteasome-subunit-alpha-type-6-bha17135448","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
