SYNONYMS
Centromere Protein M, Interphase Centromere Complex Protein 39, Chromosome 22 Open Reading Frame 18, Proliferation Associated Nuclear Element 1, bK250D10.2, CENP-M, ICEN39, C22orf18, PANE1.
INTRODUCTION
The centromere is a specialized chromatin domain, present throughout the cell cycle, that acts as a platform on which the transient assembly of the kinetochore occurs during mitosis. All active centromeres are characterized by the presence of long arrays nucleosomes in which CENPA replaces histone H3. CENPM is an additional factor required for centromere assembly.
DESCRIPTION
CENPM Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 203 amino acids (1-180) and having a molecular mass of 22.0kDa.
CENPM is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
