Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Kif2a Antibody [ - Staining of HeLa cells fixed in 3.5% paraformaldehyde. Centrosome staining during interphase and spindle pole staining during mitosis.
Rabbit polyclonal antibody to Kif2aKif2a is a kinesin-like motor protein that depolymerizes microtubules. It is found in several vertebrate cell types but is strongly expressed in neuronal cells. In dividing cells it is required for bipolar spindle formation and chromosome segregation. In neuronal cells it is involved in neurite outgrowth.
