Rabbit anti-Human, Mouse RPGR Polyclonal Antibody | anti-RPGR antibody
RPGR Rabbit pAb
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
RPGR: a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that plays a role in cilia biogenesis and maintenance. Interacts with the GDP-bound form of the small GTPase RAB8A. Promotes the exchange of GDP to GTP, converting inactive GDP-bound Rab proteins into their active GTP-bound form. Probably regulates cilia formation by regulating actin stress filaments and cell contractility. Plays an important role in photoreceptor integrity. May play a critical role in spermatogenesis and in intraflagellar transport processes May be involved in microtubule organization and regulation of transport in primary cilia. Interacts with PDE6D, RPGRIP1, CEP290, and DFNB31. Defects in RPGR are the cause of retinitis pigmentosa (RP3, RP15, and RPDSI), cone-rod dystrophy, X-linked 1 (CORDX1), and macular degeneration, X-linked, atrophic (MDXLA). Six isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Isoform 3 is found only in the retina. Colocalizes with RPGRIP1 in the outer segment of rod photoreceptors and cone outer segments. Isoform 6 associates with microtubule organizing centers, cilium basal bodies, and cilium axonemes. Interacts with NPM1 (via C-terminus), RPGRIP1L, SMC1A and SMC3.

Product Notes
The RPGR rpgr (Catalog #AAA8544622) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The RPGR Rabbit pAb reacts with Human, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's RPGR can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). WB: 1:500-1:2000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RPGR rpgr 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 "RPGR, 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.Precautions
