SYNONYMS
Centromere protein Q, CENPQ, CENP-Q, C6orf139, Centromere Protein-Q.
INTRODUCTION
CENPQ is a Component of a CENPH-CENPI-associated centromeric complex which targets CENPA to centromeres and is necessary for proper kinetochore function and mitotic progression. CENPQ takes part in incorporation of newly synthesized CENPA into centromeres using its interaction with the CENPA-NAC complex.
DESCRIPTION
CENPQ Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 291 amino acids (1-268a.a) and having a molecular mass of 33kDa.
CENPQ is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
