Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Recombinant Protein | SNRNP70 recombinant protein
Recombinant Human Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein 70kDa
Sterile Filtered clear solution.
Introduction: Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes (abbreviated as U-snRNP) are essential for splicing of precursor mRNA molecules. U1-snRNP is the most abundant RNP particle in the nucleus and consists of one small uridylate-rich RNA (U1 RNA) complexed with several proteins: the three 68/70 kDa, A, C polypeptides are unique to the U1-snRNP particle, whereas 7 so-called Sm proteins (B/B', D1, D2, D3, E, F, G) form a core subparticle that is common to all U-snRNP complexes.Both the U1-specific proteins and the Sm core particle are targets of autoantibodies which classically have been called the RNP and RNP-Sm specificities, respectively. A clean distinction of these specificities has been complicated by the biochemical difficulties of producing clean subparticle fractions from native sources. The use of single recombinant proteins as antigenic targets guarantees a much higher sensitivity and specificity and is the only way to determine RNP antibodies sensu stricto without the disturbing influence of Sm antigens; also with single U1 proteins antibodies will be detected which can be missed because of steric hindrance when using the RNP-Sm complex in an assay.Autoantibodies to U1-snRNP are present in 95% of patients with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD) and 30% of patients with SLE. Antibodies against the 68/70 kDa protein are known to have a high clinical significance in MCTD patients. The 68/70 kDa nomenclature of this protein refers to the fact that different splice variants of the protein are found in human cells.

Uniprot Description
snRNP 70: mediates the splicing of pre-mRNA by binding to the loop I region of U1-snRNA. Participates in pre-mRNA splicing and exonic splicing complexes. A major ribonucleoprotein antigen recognized by the sera from patients with autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Four alternatively spliced human isoforms have been described. The truncated isoforms (2-4) cannot bind U1-snRNA.

Product Notes
The SNRNP70 snrnp70 (Catalog #AAA142999) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Western-Blot with monoclonal anti-hexa-His-tag antibody & MCTD sera (Mixed Connective Tissue Disease). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SNRNP70 snrnp70 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
