GCP2 Antibody (PA5-103851) in ICC/IF
Immunofluorescent analysis of GCP2 in HepG2 cells. Samples were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100, blocked with 10% serum (45 min at 25°C), incubated with mouse anti-beta tubulin and GCP2 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA5-103851) using a dilution of 1:200 (1 hr, 37°C), and followed by goat anti-rabbit IgG Alexa Fluor 594 (red) and goat anti-mouse IgG Alexa Fluor 488 (green).

Target Information
The γ-Tubulin complex is composed of γ Tubulin and the γ-Tubulin complexassociated proteins GCP2, GCP3, GCP4, GCP5 and GCP6, all of which are essential components of microtubule organizing centers. γ-Tubulin complex components are localized to both the centrosome, where they are involved in microtubule nucleation, and to the cytoplasm, where they exist as soluble complexes that can be recruited to the centrosome as needed. Although the GCP proteins are related, they have distinct roles which contribute to the proper function of the γ-Tubulin complex. GCP2 (γ-Tubulin complex component 2), also known as TUBGCP2 or SPBC97 (spindle pole body protein Spc97 homolog) is a ubiquitously expressed 902 amino acid protein that localizes to the centrosome and is involved in microtubule nucleation.
