Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ala54 of human MEX3C protein.

Background

MEX3C is an RNA-binding E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in a diverse set of biological functions.
Along with PIGN and ZNF516, MEX3C has been identified as a suppressor of chromosome instability (CIN), which drives intratumor heterogeneity and has been associated with poor prognosis in colon cancer. Silencing of the Mex3c gene induces chromosome instability through replication stress/impaired replication fork progression (1).
In mice, absence of the Mex3c gene causes growth retardation and reduced insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) expression (2). Researchers have shown that murine MEX3C plays a role in controlling energy expenditure, physical activity and degree of adiposity (3,4). In the immune system, MEX3C is involved in post-transcriptional regulation of HLA-A2 (5), and plays a role in eliciting antiviral response (6).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
