RPL9 polyclonal antibody

Ribosomes, the organelles that catalyze protein synthesis, are composed of a small subunit (40S) and a large subunit (60S) that consist of over 80 distinct ribosomal proteins. Mammalian ribosomal proteins are encoded by multigene families that contain processed pseudogenes and one functional intron-containing gene within their coding regions. Ribosomal Protein L9, also known as RPL9, is a 192 amino acid protein that is a component of the 60S subunit. Localized to the cytoplasm and expressed ubiquitously, Ribosomal Protein L9 belongs to the L6P family of ribosomal proteins and functions in protein synthesis. Like most ribosomal proteins, Ribosomal Protein L9 exists as multiple processed pseudogenes that are scattered throughout the genome. Due to alternative splicing events, Ribosomal Protein L9 is expressed as two isoforms.

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