Mbnl2 Antibody - middle region : FITC (ARP40959_P050-FITC)

Mbnl2 mediates pre-mRNA alternative splicing regulation. It acts either as activator or repressor of splicing on specific pre-mRNA targets. It inhibits cardiac troponin-T (TNNT2) pre-mRNA exon inclusion but induces insulin receptor (IR) pre-mRNA exon inclusion in muscle. It antagonizes the alternative splicing activity pattern of CELF proteins. RNA-binding protein that binds to 5'ACACCC-3' core sequence, termed zipcode, within the 3'UTR of ITGA3. It binds to CUG triplet repeat expansion in myotonic dystrophy muscle cells by sequestering the target RNAs. It seems to regulate expression and localization of ITGA3 by transporting it from the nucleus to cytoplasm at adhesion plaques. It may play a role in myotonic dystrophy pathophysiology (DM) .

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.
