Anaphase Promoting Complex Subunit 5 (ANAPC5) Antibody (HRP)

Background

ANAPC5 is a structural subunit of the Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) that contributes to the stability and assembly of the complex. It interacts with other subunits to form the platform necessary for substrate recognition and ubiquitination. ANAPC5 facilitates the recruitment of co-activators such as CDC20 and CDH1, which are required for targeting specific proteins for proteolysis during the cell cycle. By promoting the degradation of regulators like securin and cyclin B, ANAPC5 ensures proper chromosome segregation and mitotic exit. Loss or mutation of ANAPC5 impairs APC/C function, leading to cell cycle arrest, chromosomal instability, and an increased risk of cancer. ANAPC5’s role in the structural integrity of APC/C highlights its importance in maintaining genomic stability and normal cell division. Dysregulation of ANAPC5 is a hallmark of mitotic errors often observed in tumorigenesis.
