Cullin 7 is a component of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, which mediate the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Cullin 7 seems to be involved proteosomal degradation of proteins involved in endothelial proliferation
Application Notes:
This antibody reacts with human and mouse Cul7 by Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. The antibody immunoprecipitates in vitro translated protein and also immunoprecipitates protein from cell lysates (using HeLa, NIH-3T3, and others).
