Product Description

PTRF Antibody | 7267 | ProSci

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human

Homology: Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Rat: (95%) , Mouse: (95%)

Immunogen: Rabbit polyclonal PTRF antibody was raised against a 19 amino acid peptide near the carboxy terminus of human PTRF.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 270 - 320 of PTRF.

Research Area: Cancer, Cell Cycle

Tested Application: E, WB, IHC-P, IF

Application: PTRF antibody can be used for detection of PTRF by Western blot at 0.5 - 1 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples; Immunohistochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

Specificiy: At least three isoforms of PTRF are known to exist; this antibody detects all three isoforms. It is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the cavin family.

BACKGROUND: PTRF Antibody: The polymerase I and transcript release factor (PTRF) enables the dissociation of paused ternary polymerase I transcription complexes from the 3' end of pre-rRNA transcripts, regulating rRNA transcription by promoting the dissociation of transcription complexes and the re-initiation of polymerase I on nascent rRNA transcripts. PTRF also localizes to caveolae at the plasma membrane and is thought to play a critical role in the formation of caveolae and the stabilization of caveolins, translocating from caveolae to the cytoplasm after insulin stimulation. PTRF is also thought to modify lipid metabolism and insulin-regulated gene expression. Mutations in this gene result in a disorder characterized by generalized lipodystrophy and muscular dystrophy.
