Scientific Data Images for Human ABCB5 Antibody

Detection of Human ABCB5 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human ABCB5 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of Bowes human melanoma cell line and K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Human ABCB5 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5799) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for ABCB5 at approximately 100-110 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Background: ABCB5

ABCB5 (ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B [DR/TAP] member 5) is a 90 kDa (predicted MW) member of the human P-glycoprotein family of molecules. It is expressed by CD133+ pluripotent pigment stem cells, where it serves as a marker for cells that show a high incidence of polyploidy. Human ABCB5 is 812 amino acids (aa) in length. It is possibly a five transmembrane protein with a 247 aa N-terminal extracellular domain (ECD) (aa 1-247) and a 283 aa C-terminal cytoplasmic region (aa 530-812). The ECD contains one ABC transporter (aa 2-177), while the cytoplasmic region contains a second ABC transporter (aa 570-808). There are two potential splice forms. One shows a seven aa substitution for aa 125-812, while another possesses an alternative start site 445 aa upstream of the standard site. Over aa 141-247, human ABCB5 shares 64% aa identity with mouse ABCB5.
