| Product Name | Human PRKR-interacting protein 1 (PRKRIP1) ELISA Kit |
|---|---|
| Description | The C114 cDNA contains an open reading frame of 187 amino acids with a predicted mass of 21 kDa. Using green fluorescent protein (GFP)-C114 fusion plasmids, amino acids 126-131 are shown to be essential for the nuclear localization of C114. An arginine-rich region (amino acids 98-143) spanning the nuclear localization signals (amino acids 126-131) exhibits a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) binding activity. Competition experiments with different RNA homopolymers demonstrate that C114 preferentially binds to poly(I.C). C114 binds to the dsRNA-activated protein kinase, protein kinase R (PKR), via dsRNA-binding domains of PKR and the N-terminal region of the C114 protein. In vitro kinase assays indicate that C114 inhibits PKR activation via a dsRNA-independent mechanism. This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of Human PRKRIP1. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between Human PRKRIP1 and analogues was observed. |
