Related Product Information for anti-PRPF8 antibody
PRP8, also designated pre-mRNA-processing-splicing factor 8, is a highly conserved nuclear protein and a central component of the catalytic core of the spliceosome, where it may be involved in various molecular rearrangements. PRP8, which is widely expressed, plays a role in transesterification reactions that regulate splicesome-induced pre-mRNA splicing. Specifically, PRP8 interacts with the GU dinucleotide at the 5' splice site (5'SS) and forms a specific UV-inducible cross-link. It also interacts functionally with the 3'SS, affecting the efficiency of the second catalytic step. PRP8 may play a role in the first transesterification step, as PRP8 mutations that prohibit negative regulation of PRP28 or PRP44/Brr2 subsequently block U4 activation. In addition, PRP8 interacts with a conserved region of U6 that is instrumental in the formation of the catalytic core of the spliceosome.

NCBI Description

Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in 2 sequential transesterification steps. The protein encoded by this gene is a component of both U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomes, and found to be essential for the catalytic step II in pre-mRNA splicing process. It contains several WD repeats, which function in protein-protein interactions. This protein has a sequence similarity to yeast Prp8 protein. This gene is a candidate gene for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

Functions as a scaffold that mediates the ordered assembly of spliceosomal proteins and snRNAs. Required for the assembly of the U4/U6-U5 tri-snRNP complex. Functions as scaffold that positions spliceosomal U2, U5 and U6 snRNAs at splice sites on pre-mRNA substrates, so that splicing can occur. Interacts with both the 5' and the 3' splice site.

Product Notes

The PRPF8 prpf8 (Catalog #AAA3013303) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PRPF8 Polyclonal Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's PRPF8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS). WB: 1:500-1:2,000 ICC: 1:50-1:200 IHC: 1:50-1:200 FC/FACS: 1:50-1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PRPF8 prpf8 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 "PRPF8, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
