Description

Product Specs

Introduction

MCM7, a mini-chromosome maintenance protein (MCM), is essential for initiating eukaryotic genome replication. MCM proteins assemble into a hexameric complex, a critical part of the pre-replication complex (pre-RC), involved in replication fork formation and recruiting DNA replication proteins. The MCM complex, consisting of MCM2, 4, 6, and 7 proteins, exhibits DNA helicase activity, including DNA unwinding.

Physical Appearance
The product appears as a colorless solution that has undergone sterile filtration.
Formulation

The product is provided at a concentration of 1mg/ml and is prepared in a solution containing PBS with a pH of 7.4, 10% Glycerol, and 0.02% Sodium Azide.

Storage Procedures
For short-term storage of up to one month, maintain the product at a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius. For extended storage, store the product at -20 degrees Celsius. Repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided.
Stability / Shelf Life
The product remains stable for a period of 12 months when stored at -20 degrees Celsius and for 1 month when stored at 4 degrees Celsius.
Applications

The MCM7 antibody has undergone rigorous testing using ELISA and Western blot analysis to ensure its specificity and reactivity. However, optimal results may vary depending on the specific application, and therefore, it is recommended to titrate the reagent for each individual experiment.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

The Minichromosome Maintenance Complex Component 7 (MCM7) is a crucial protein involved in the initiation and regulation of DNA replication. It is part of the minichromosome maintenance (MCM) protein family, which plays a significant role in ensuring the proper replication of DNA during the cell cycle. The MCM complex, including MCM7, is essential for the G1/S phase transition and the maintenance of genomic stability.

Structure and Function

MCM7 is a component of the MCM2-7 complex, which functions as a DNA helicase. This complex unwinds the DNA helix, allowing replication machinery to access the DNA strands for replication. The MCM2-7 complex is composed of six related proteins (MCM2, MCM3, MCM4, MCM5, MCM6, and MCM7), and each component is vital for the helicase activity of the complex .

MCM7 specifically has two isoforms:

  • Isoform 1: Consists of 719 amino acids.
  • Isoform 2: Consists of 543 amino acids.

Both isoforms contain a conserved MCM domain in the C-terminal region, which is crucial for their function .

Role in Cancer

MCM7 has been extensively studied for its role in cancer development and progression. Increased levels of MCM7 are often associated with high aggressiveness and poor clinical outcomes in various cancer types. This makes MCM7 a potential biomarker for cancer diagnosis and prognosis .

Mouse Anti Human MCM7 Antibody

The Mouse Anti Human MCM7 Antibody is a monoclonal antibody produced in mice and is used for various research applications, including ELISA and Western Blot. This antibody is purified from mouse ascitic fluids by protein-A affinity chromatography and is supplied as a sterile filtered colorless solution containing PBS, glycerol, and sodium azide .

Applications

The Mouse Anti Human MCM7 Antibody is used in:

  • ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay): To detect and quantify the presence of MCM7 in various samples.
  • Western Blot: To identify and analyze MCM7 protein expression in different tissues and cell lines .
Storage and Stability

For short-term storage, the antibody should be kept at +4°C. For longer periods, it should be stored at -20°C to prevent degradation. It is important to avoid freeze-thaw cycles to maintain the antibody’s integrity .
