• Host: Synthetic
• Reactivity: Rat
• Specificity: MTA1 siRNA (Rat) is a target-specific 19-23 nt siRNA oligo duplexes designed to knock down gene expression.
• Purity/Purification: > 97%
• Form/Format: Lyophilized powder
• Sequence Length: 703

• Applicable Applications for MTA1 sirna: RNA Interference (RNAi)
• Quality Control: Oligonucleotide synthesis is monitored base by base through trityl analysis to ensure appropriate coupling efficiency. The oligo is subsequently purified by affinity-solid phase extraction. The annealed RNA duplex is further analyzed by mass spectrometry to verify the exact composition of the duplex. Each lot is compared to the previous lot by mass spectrometry to ensure maximum lot-to-lot consistency.
• Directions for Use: We recommends transfection with 100 nM siRNA 48 to 72 hours prior to cell lysis. Before resuspending, briefly centrifuge the tube to ensure the lyophilized siRNA is at the bottom of the tube. Resuspend the siRNA oligos to an appropriate concentration with DEPC water. For each vial, suitable for 250 transfections in 24 well plate (20 pmol for each well).
• Components: We offer pre-designed sets of 3 different target-specific siRNA oligo duplexes of rat MTA1 gene. Each vial contains 5 nmol of lyophilized siRNA. The duplexes can be transfected individually or pooled together to achieve knockdown of the target gene, which is most commonly assessed by qPCR or western blot. Our siRNA oligos are also chemically modified (2'-OMe) at no extra charge for increased stability and enhanced knockdown in vitro and in vivo.
• Preparation and Storage: Shipped at 4 degree C. Store at -20 degree C for one year.

NCBI Description

high expression of this protein correlates with the metastatic potential of cells; may have a role in gene regulation [RGD, Feb 2006]

Uniprot Description

MTA1: metastasis-associated protein. A component of the NuRD ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling and histone deacetylase complex. Interacts with HDAC1. Expressed at high levels in metastatic cells. Two alternatively spliced isoforms have been described. The long isoform is a co-repressor of estrogen receptor (ER). The short isoform binds to ER and sequesters it in the cytoplasm and enhances non-genomic responses of ER.

Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Transcription, coactivator/corepressor; Nuclear receptor co-regulator

Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; Golgi apparatus; microtubule; intracellular membrane-bound organelle; rough endoplasmic reticulum; endoplasmic reticulum; cytoplasmic membrane-bound vesicle; cytoplasm; nuclear envelope; NuRD complex; nucleus

Molecular Function: protein binding; enzyme binding; zinc ion binding; sequence-specific DNA binding; transcription coactivator activity; chromatin binding; transcription corepressor activity; transcription factor activity

Biological Process: proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; transcription, DNA-dependent; secretory granule organization and biogenesis; response to lipopolysaccharide; female pregnancy; regulation of gene expression, epigenetic; entrainment of circadian clock by photoperiod; locomotor rhythm; regulation of transcription, DNA-dependent; double-strand break repair; regulation of inflammatory response; circadian regulation of gene expression; response to ionizing radiation
