This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Immunogen
This UPF2 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 630-656 amino acids from the Central region of human UPF2.
UPF2 is a protein that is part of a post-splicing multiprotein complex involved in both mRNA nuclear export and mRNA surveillance. mRNA surveillance detects exported mRNAs with truncated open reading frames and initiates nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). When translation ends upstream from the last exon-exon junction, this triggers NMD to degrade mRNAs containing premature stop codons. This protein is located in the perinuclear area. It interacts with translation release factors and the proteins that are functional homologs of yeast Upf1p and Upf3p.
