MKKS Antibodies

AND MKKS ELISA kits, MKKS Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect MKKS, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with MKKS in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop MKKS antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to MKKS by testing them on tissues known to express MKKS positively and negatively. Browse below to find the MKKS antibody that suites your experiment. We have 0 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

MKKS Overview

Facts about McKusick-Kaufman/Bardet-Biedl syndromes putative chaperonin.

MKKS 3D structure. Source: alphafold

McKusick-Kaufman/Bardet-Biedl syndromes putative chaperonin (MKKS)

Probable molecular chaperone that assists the folding of proteins upon ATP hydrolysis (PubMed:20080638). Plays a role in the assembly of BBSome, a complex involved in ciliogenesis regulating transfers vesicles to the cilia (PubMed:20080638).

May play a role in protein processing in limb, cardiac and reproductive system development. May play a role in cytokinesis (PubMed:28753627).

Tissue Specificity

Widely expressed in adult and fetal tissues.

Subcellular Localizations

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Nucleus. The majority of the protein resides within the pericentriolar material (PCM), a proteinaceous tube surrounding centrioles. During interphase, the protein is confined to the lateral surfaces of the PCM but during mitosis it relocalizes throughout the PCM and is found at the intercellular bridge. The MKSS protein is highly mobile and rapidly shuttles between the cytosol and centrosome.
