Encoded by the SASS6 gene on chromosome 1p21.2, this protein is a structural component of the cartwheel, a ninefold symmetric scaffold that initiates centriole assembly. SASS6 self-oligomerizes through its coiled-coil domain to establish the radial symmetry of nascent centrioles, ensuring accurate duplication and inheritance of centrosomes during each cell cycle. The protein localizes to the proximal ends of centrioles and is essential for maintaining centrosome integrity and mitotic spindle organization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLoss of SASS6 disrupts centriole formation, resulting in monopolar spindles and abnormal cell division. Mutations in SASS6 cause primary microcephaly, characterized by reduced brain size and defective neural progenitor proliferation. The SASS6 antibody allows detection of centriolar structures in cultured cells and tissue samples. Immunofluorescence using this antibody reveals punctate staining at centrosomes during interphase and mitosis, while western blotting identifies a 65 kilodalton band. Because of its critical role in centrosome biogenesis, SASS6 serves as a core marker for centriole assembly studies and cell cycle regulation research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeyond its role in structural assembly, SASS6 interacts with STIL and CEP135 to coordinate recruitment of microtubule-nucleating proteins. Its regulated degradation through the APC\/C complex ensures centriole duplication occurs only once per cell cycle. Overexpression of SASS6 leads to centrosome amplification, a phenotype frequently observed in cancer cells. The SASS6 antibody is thus valuable for examining centrosome abnormalities and chromosomal instability associated with tumorigenesis. Researchers also employ this antibody in developmental studies to trace centriole formation during early embryogenesis.\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\u003eImmunohistochemistry:\u003c\/strong\u003e map target signal in tissue context and compare regions\/phenotypes.\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=SASS6 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=SASS6 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=SASS6 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/SASS6 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=SASS6+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":53047297474925,"sku":"FY12690","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_29d6c3f1-c6c2-402f-9b97-888221b09bc0.jpg?v=1772019388","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/sass6-antibody-spindle-assembly-abnormal-protein-6-bha17135593","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
