Anti-CPSF6 Antibody

Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor subunit 6 ; Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor 68 kDa subunit; CPSF 68 kDa subunit; Cleavage factor Im complex 68 kDa subunit

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

Component of the cleavage factor Im (CFIm) complex that functions as an activator of the pre-mRNA 3'-end cleavage and polyadenylation processing required for the maturation of pre-mRNA into functional mRNAs (PubMed:9659921, PubMed:8626397, PubMed:14690600, PubMed:29276085) . CFIm contributes to the recruitment of multiprotein complexes on specific sequences on the pre-mRNA 3'-end, so called cleavage and polyadenylation signals (pA signals) (PubMed:9659921, PubMed:8626397, PubMed:14690600) . Most pre-mRNAs contain multiple pA signals, resulting in alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) producing mRNAs with variable 3'-end formation (PubMed:23187700, PubMed:29276085) . The CFIm complex acts as a key regulator of cleavage and polyadenylation site choice during APA through its binding to 5'- UGUA-3' elements localized in the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) for a huge number of pre-mRNAs (PubMed:20695905, PubMed:29276085) . CPSF6 enhances NUDT21/CPSF5 binding to 5'-UGUA-3' elements localized upstream of pA signals and promotes RNA looping, and hence activates directly the mRNA 3'-processing machinery (PubMed:15169763, PubMed:29276085, PubMed:21295486) . Plays a role in mRNA export (PubMed:19864460) .
