Hsp20

GWB-E08F28

Rat skeletal muscle Hsp20.

HeLa cell lysate

1 mg/ml Storage

WB: Use at a concentration of 0. 05 µ g/ml. Detects a band of approximately 20 kDa. Not tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Hsp20 is a small heat shock protein related to Hsp25 Hsp27 and may form different hetercomplexes with these proteins. The specific physiological function of Hsp20 is not yet known. It is distributed ubiquitously in tissues but is found in higher levels in skeletal smooth and heart muscle. Under normal conditions Hsp20 is diffusely distributed in the cytosol but under heat stress conditions it translocates to the nucleus. Unlike other heat shock proteins the amount of Hsp20 does not increase after heat shock.
