General description

Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) is a RNA-binding protein that is associated to polysomes and may be involved in the transport of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Defects in FMR1 are the cause of Fragile X syndrome, which is a common genetic disease characterized by moderate to severe mental retardation, macroorchidism, large ears, prominent jaw, and high-pitched, jocular speech. The defect in most fragile X syndrome patients results from an amplification of a CGG repeat region which is directly in front of the coding region.
~71 kDa

Immunogen

Fusion protein with a full length FMRP (human).

Application

Anti-Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein Antibody, clone 1C3 detects level of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein & has been published & validated for use in ELISA, IC, IH, IH(P) & WB.
Immunohistochemistry:
Frozen and paraffin sections. 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used.

ELISA:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used in ELISA.

Detection of FMRP on Blood Smears:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used.

Immunocytochemistry:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used on transfected cells. Light fixation (2% PFA, permeabilize with 0.1% triton in block only)

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Anti-Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein, clone 1C3 - Data Sheet
RNA-Binding Protein Immunoprecipitation

All eukaryotic organisms require tight regulation of gene expression for complex processes such as development, differentiation, cell specification, and responses to environmental stimuli. Many genes are regulated post-transcriptionally, in addition to transcriptional mechanisms of gene regulation. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are essential for post-transcriptional gene regulation, linking transcription and translation in many processes including transcription, splicing, export, rate of translation and turnover. In all of these events, RBPs coordinate regulation of the amount of protein produced from mRNA transcripts.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
