ANTI-MBD1 Usage And Synthesis
Uses
Anti-PCM1 antibody has been used in cardiac myocytes nuclei (CM) staining and immunoblotting.
Uses
Anti-PCM1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used as a primary antibody in immunofluorescence. It has also been used for immunohistochemistry study and for flow cytometry and magnetic-assisted cell sorting assay.

General Description
The gene PCM1 (pericentriolar material 1) is mapped to human chromosome 8p22. The encoded protein localizes to cytoplasmic granules known as ‘centriolar satellites′, which are present around the centrosome. It has a molar mass of 228kDa protein.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The gene PCM1 (pericentriolar material 1) encodes a large centrosomal protein with multiple coiled-coil domains that forms a complex with disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) and Bardet-Biedl syndrome 4 protein (BBS4). This binding helps in synergistic targeting of PCM1 and other cargo proteins to the centrosome. It functions as a scaffold and facilitates the targeting of several proteins to the centrosome in a dynein motor-dependent manner and helps in regulating microtubular dynamics. The centriolar satellites that contain PCM1 protein participate in microtubule- and dynactin-dependent recruitment of proteins to the centrosome and mediate the assembly of centrosomal proteins and microtubule organization. Defects in this gene are associated with reduction in gray matter volume and susceptibility to schizophrenia.
