Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Monoclonal Anti-USP25 (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the hybridoma U25.7 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a fragment of human USP25. USP25 (ubiquitin-specific protease 25) is a member of the ubiquitin processing proteases (UBP) family. It is located on the gene-poor region of 21q11.2 human chromosome._x000D_ Application_x000D_ Monoclonal Anti-USP25 antibody has been used in:_x000D_ • enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)_x000D_ • immunoblotting_x000D_ • immunocytochemistry_x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ USP25 (ubiquitin-specific protease 25) is a target for sumoylation. It takes place within the two ubiquitin interaction motifs (UIM) of USP25 that are required for efficient hydrolysis of Ub (ubiquitin), and thus impairs USP25 activity as a result of reduced affinity to Ub chains. Overexpression of USP25 has been observed in Down syndrome fetal brain.
