Antigen: Recombinant Plasmodium falciparum ASF1 (PF3D7_1224500) protein
Known Reactivity: P. falciparum
Host: Rabbit
Description: Polyclonal antibodies to P. falciparum anti-silencing function 1 (ASF1) chaperone protein. ASF1 is involved in chromatin assembly and epigenetic regulation. Antigen was cloned and expressed as a his-SUMO fusion in Ecoli. Recombinant protein was purified, hisSUMO tag was cleaved and removed and used to immunize rabbits. Antibodies can be used to study chromatin assembly and epigenetic regulation in P. falciparum.
