General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-04748) is a rabbit-derived IgG polyclonal antibody raised against human UPF1, targeting the amino acid region 301–450 of the protein. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with UPF1 from mouse, rat, chicken, dog, cow, and horse. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. This gene encodes a protein that is part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance. mRNA surveillance detects exported mRNAs with truncated open reading frames and initiates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). When translation ends upstream from the last exon-exon junction, this triggers NMD to degrade mRNAs containing premature stop codons. This protein is located only in the cytoplasm. When translation ends, it interacts with the protein that is a functional homolog of yeast Upf2p to trigger mRNA decapping. Use of multiple polyadenylation sites has been noted for this gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
DPABH-04748 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:500–1:2,000) application.
DPABH-04748 is supplied as a liquid formulation in 0.01M TBS (pH7.4) with 1% BSA, 0.02% Proclin300 and 50% Glycerol. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
