Millipore Anti-Mad2 Antibody, Clone As55-A12 Is A Highly Specific Mouse Monoclonal Antibody, That Targets Mad2 & Has Been Tested In Western Blotting & Immunofluorescence. - Mill (Additional S&H or Hazmat Fees May Apply)
Mad2, also known as MAD2, MAD2L1, or Mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint protein MAD2A, is a mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint protein. The spindle checkpoint makes sure that all the chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate before anaphase begins which means that all chromosomes are attached to the spindle before anaphase can start. The spindle checkpoint becomes triggered when the chromosome(s) are unaligned. Mad2 then binds to the anaphase promoting complex (APC) and CDC20. This complex prevents the cell from transitioning into anaphase and ultimately from cell death or disease.
