BMI‑1 in K562 Human Cell Line. BMI-1 was detected in immersion fixed K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line using 10 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human BMI-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3334) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Background: BMI-1

BMI-1 (B cell-specific Moloney-MLV Integration site 1) is a 45 kDa protooncogene that is a class II member of the Polycomb group of genes. It participates in the formation of large multimeric complex termed PRC1 that inhibits target gene transcription loss of BMI-1 function and precludes stem cells from self-replicating. The amino acid sequence of human BMI-1 is 99%, 97%, 99%, and 99% identical to that of bovine, mouse, feline, and canine BMI-1, respectively.
