AbFlex^® Mi-2 beta (CHD4) antibody (rAb)

Application Notes

Applications Validated by Active Motif:
WB: 0.5 - 2 µg/ml.

AbFlex^® recombinant antibodies are genetically derived from DNA sequences of parental hybridoma clones. For details on the parental clone, see Catalog No. 39695.

Immunogen

This antibody was raised against a synthetic peptide derived from human Mi-2 beta.

Buffer

Purified IgG in 140 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, 70 mM NaCl, 32 mM NaOAc, 0.035% sodium azide, 30% glycerol. Sodium azide is highly toxic.

Background

AbFlex^® antibodies are recombinant antibodies (rAbs) that have been generated using defined DNA sequences to produce highly specific, reproducible antibodies. Each AbFlex antibody contains a 6xHis Tag, a Biotinylation Tag for enzymatic biotin conjugation using the biotin ligase, BirA, and a sortase recognition motif (LPXTG) to attach a variety of labels directly to the antibody including fluorophores, enzymatic substrates (HRP, AP), peptides, drugs as well as solid supports. AbFlex Mi-2 beta (CHD4) antibody was expressed as full-length IgG with mouse immunoglobulin heavy and light chains (IgG2a isotype) in mammalian 293 cells.

Mi-2β (Mi-2 beta, CHD4, chromodomain helicase DNA-binding protein 4) represents the major Mi-2 isoform present in the complex Mi-2/NuRD. This complex is a multi-subunit protein complex containing both histone deacetylase and nucleosome-dependent ATPase subunits. Current models predict that this complex functions primarily in transcriptional repression. In addition to the ATPase domain, Mi-2 beta contains a chromodomain and two PHD domains. Mi-2 beta interacts with BRG-1, a component of the SWI/SNF complex, and the RET finger protein (RFP).
