Anti-POLR1A Antibody

DNA-directed RNA polymerase I subunit RPA1; RNA polymerase I subunit A1;2.7.7.6; A190; DNA-directed RNA polymerase I largest subunit; DNA-directed RNA polymerase I subunit A; RNA polymerase I 194 kDa subunit; RPA194; POLR1A;

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) .

DNA-dependent RNA polymerase catalyzes the transcription of DNA into RNA using the four ribonucleoside triphosphates as substrates. Largest and catalytic core component of RNA polymerase I which synthesizes ribosomal RNA precursors. Forms the polymerase active center together with the second largest subunit. A single stranded DNA template strand of the promoter is positioned within the central active site cleft of Pol I. A bridging helix emanates from RPA1 and crosses the cleft near the catalytic site and is thought to promote translocation of Pol I by acting as a ratchet that moves the RNA-DNA hybrid through the active site by switching from straight to bent conformations at each step of nucleotide addition (By similarity) .
