A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of CBX3 antibody, Alternative Names: CBX3 control peptide, CBX3 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-CBX3 Blocking Peptide, chromobox homolog 3, HP1 gamma homolog, Drosophila Blocking Peptide, HECH Blocking Peptide, HP1-GAMMA Blocking Peptide, HP1Hs-gamma Blocking Peptide, CBX3, CBX-3, CBX 3, CBX-3 Blocking Peptide, CBX 3 Blocking Peptide
At the nuclear envelope, the nuclear lamina and heterochromatin are adjacent to the inner nuclear membrane. CBX3 binds DNA and is a component of heterochromatin. CBX3 also can bind lamin B receptor, an integral membrane protein found in the inner nuclear membrane. The dual binding functions of CBX3 may explain the association of heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane.
