VCP polyclonal antibody

Valosin-containing protein (VCP) is a highly conserved, that belongs to the AAA (ATPase associated with a variety of cellular activities) family of proteins. It is necessary for the fragmentation of Golgi stacks during mitosis and for their reassembly after mitosis. VCP is involved in the formation of the transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER). VCP homo-hexamers associate with a variety of protein cofactors to form many distinct protein complexes, which act as chaperones to unfold proteins and transport them to specific cellular compartments or to the proteosome.
