ANTIBODIES

Contributor Information
- Institute University of Georgia
Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Alpha-TgCenH3 (TgCenpA) [CenpA]
- Alternate names: T. gondii centromeric histone 3 variant (CenH3)
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Arabidopsis
- Application: IF
- Description: The phylum Apicomplexa includes various parasites that cause several human diseases including malaria and toxoplasmosis. These parasites are able to invade human hosts through a complex budding process. The budding process of Toxoplasma gondii was recently shown to require the centrocone. The centromeric histone 3 variant (CenH3) is part of this centrocone and can be visualized using the TgCenpA antibody.
