p-SMC1 Antibody (4H374) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects p-SMC1 in mouse, rat, and human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and immunofluorescence (IF). p-SMC1, a phosphorylated form of the structural maintenance of chromosomes protein 1, plays a crucial role in the regulation of sister chromatid cohesion and chromosome condensation during mitosis, which is essential for accurate cell division and genomic stability. The phosphorylation of SMC1 is particularly important as it is involved in the DNA damage response, facilitating the repair of double-strand breaks and ensuring that cells do not progress through the cell cycle with damaged DNA. This post-translational modification enhances SMC1′s interaction with other key regulators of the cell cycle, thereby influencing the overall dynamics of chromosomal behavior during mitosis. p-SMC1 is expressed in various human tissues, including the thymus, testis, and colon, highlighting its fundamental role in cellular processes across different biological contexts. anti-p-SMC1 antibody (4H374) effectively recognizes this phosphorylated protein, making p-SMC1 (4H374) monoclonal antibody a valuable tool for researchers studying cell cycle regulation and the mechanisms underlying genomic integrity.
