Anti-C9ORF72/C9RANT (poly-GR) Antibody, clone 5A2

产品说明

一般描述

Hexanucleotide (GGGGCC) repeat expansions in a noncoding region of C9ORF72 are the major genetic cause of FTD and ALS (c9FTD/ALS). The RNA structure of GGGGCC repeats renders these transcripts susceptible to an unconventional mechanism of translation—repeat associated non-ATG (RAN) translation. Translation of the GGGGCC-repeat in all reading frames would result in three dipeptide-repeat (DPR) proteins poly-(Gly-Ala), poly-(Gly-Pro) and poly-(Gly-Arg). poly-GA and poly-GP proteins are extremely hydrophobic and may form intracellular aggregates

特异性

This antibody recognizes C9ORF72/C9RANT (poly-GR) and other proteins containing poly-GR sequence, such as the Epstein Barr virus protein EBNA2

免疫原

Epitope: poly-GR
Linear peptide corresponding to Epstein-Barr Virus Nuclear Antigen 2 (ENBA2) containing GR repeat sequence.

应用
