MX1 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-MX1 Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

MX1 encodes a guanosine triphosphate (GTP) -metabolizing protein that participates in the cellular antiviral response. The encoded protein is induced by type I and type II interferons and antagonizes the replication process of several different RNA and DNA viruses. There is a related gene located adjacent to MX1 on chromosome 21, and there are multiple pseudogenes located in a cluster on chromosome 4. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
