PSMD5 antibody detects 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 5, a proteasome assembly modulator that regulates protein degradation and cellular proteostasis. The UniProt recommended name is 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 5 (PSMD5). Also known as Proteasome inhibitor PI31 homolog, this protein acts as a negative regulator of 26S proteasome formation and function.
Functionally, PSMD5 antibody identifies a 328-amino-acid cytoplasmic protein that binds proteasome regulatory subunits and interferes with their association into the mature 26S proteasome. PSMD5 fine-tunes proteasome activity by limiting the assembly of regulatory particles with the catalytic core, maintaining balance between protein degradation and stability. This regulation is crucial for cell cycle control, stress response, and antigen presentation.
The PSMD5 gene is located on chromosome 9q33.3 and is expressed in many tissues, including heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. PSMD5 expression is induced by stress and inflammatory signals to transiently reduce proteasome activity, preventing excessive protein turnover during cellular adaptation.
Pathologically, PSMD5 dysfunction affects protein quality control and contributes to neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, and cancer. Overexpression inhibits proteasome activity, leading to accumulation of misfolded proteins, while deficiency may accelerate degradation of key signaling molecules. Research using PSMD5 antibody supports studies in proteostasis, protein degradation, and stress response pathways.
PSMD5 antibody is validated for western blotting, immunofluorescence, and immunoprecipitation to detect proteasome regulatory subunits. NSJ Bioreagents provides PSMD5 antibody reagents optimized for research in protein homeostasis, ubiquitin-proteasome system, and cellular stress regulation.
Structurally, 26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 5 contains a conserved PI31 domain responsible for proteasome binding and inhibitory function. This domain interacts with the base subcomplex of the regulatory particle, competing with normal assembly factors. This antibody enables detailed study of PSMD5's role in proteasome regulation and protein degradation dynamics.
Optimal dilution of the PSMD5 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
E.coli-derived human PSMD5 recombinant protein (Position: M1-K493) was used as the immunogen for the PSMD5 antibody.
After reconstitution, the PSMD5 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
