Anti-Centrin 1 Antibody

This polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com targets Centrin 1 (CETN1), a calcium-binding protein of approximately 20 kDa that localizes to centrosomes and basal bodies. It is widely used in studies of centriole duplication, ciliogenesis, and spindle assembly during cell division. Centrin 1 also participates in nucleotide excision repair complexes, making this reagent valuable for DNA damage response research. The antibody is validated for Western blot (WB) and immunofluorescence (IF) applications across multiple species, including human, mouse, rat, hamster, and Xenopus samples. Supplied as 100 µg of liquid antibody in a vial, it should be stored refrigerated and protected from light; for long-term use, aliquot to limit freeze-thaw cycles. Researchers commonly apply this reagent to investigate spermatogenesis, photoreceptor cilia formation, and mitotic fidelity in dividing cells.
