Bmi-1 Monoclonal Antibody
Product details
Background:
BMI1 proto-oncogene, polycomb ring finger(BMI1) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a ring finger protein that is major component of the polycomb group complex 1 (PRC1). This complex functions through chromatin remodeling as an essential epigenetic repressor of multiple regulatory genes involved in embryonic development and self-renewal in somatic stem cells. This protein also plays a central role in DNA damage repair. This gene is an oncogene and aberrant expression is associated with numerous cancers and is associated with resistance to certain chemotherapies. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the upstream COMM domain containing 3 (COMMD3) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015],

| Function | Disease:Cooperates with the MYC oncogene to produce B-lymphomas.,Function:Component of the Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1 complex, a complex required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. In the PRC1 complex, it is required to stimulate the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity of RNF2/RING2.,PTM:May be polyubiquitinated; which does not lead to proteasomal degradation.,similarity:Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.,subunit:Component of chromatin-associated class II polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1/hPRC-H) at least composed of PCGF2/RNF110, BMI1/PCGF4, CBX2/M33, CBX4/PC2, CBX8/PC3, PHC1, PHC2, PHC3, SCMH1, RING1 and RNF2/RING2. Also component of E3 ubiquitin ligase complex or human polycomb repressive complex 1-like at least composed of PHC2, BMI1, RING1 and RNF2. Interacts with SPOP. Part of a complex consisting of BMI1, CUL3 and SPOP. Interacts with E4F1., |
