Immunogen: A synthetic peptide (HVFLVSCALPDSV) corresponding to the amino acids 48-60 ofhuman ubiquitin conjugated to Blue carrier protein has been used as the immunogen.The peptide is homologous with the corresponding sequence derived from ubiquitinprotein in bovine, mouse and rat.

Description: Ubiquitin is a highly conserved protein of about 8.5 kDa molecular weight, which has anATP dependent role in the targeting of proteins for proteolytic degradation. To performthis function, the protein to be degraded is first covalently attached to the C terminus ofubiquitin, and the ubiquitinated complex is then recognized by a complex of degradativeenzymes. Interestingly, ubiquitin also becomes covalently bonded to many types ofpathological inclusions, which appear to be resistant to normal degradation. Therefore,ubiquitin antibodies are very useful for studies of these inclusions. For example, theneurofibrillary tangles and paired helical filaments diagnostic of Alzheimer',sdisease, Lewy bodies seen in Parkinson',s disease, and Pick bodies found inPick',s disease are all heavily ubiquitinated and can be readily visualized withubiquitin antibodies.
