Anti-PTCD1 Antibody Picoband®

This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that binds leucine tRNAs and other mitochondrial RNAs and plays a role in the regulation of translation. Increased expression of this gene results in decreased mitochondrial leucine tRNA levels. Naturally occurring read-through transcription exists between upstream ATP5J2 (ATP synthase, H+ transporting, mitochondrial Fo complex, subunit F2) and this gene.

E.coli-derived human PTCD1 recombinant protein (Position: D203-L601) . Human PTCD1 shares 76.2% and 77.8% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse and rat PTCD1, respectively.
