MCG10 is a member of the KH-domain RNA-binding protein family.
Proteins of this family also referred to as alpha-CPs, bind to RNA with specificity for C-rich pyrimidine regions.
Alpha-CPs play important roles in post-transcriptional activities and have different cellular distributions.
MCG10 is induced by p53 and DNA damage via two p53-responsive promoter elements.
Its overexpression in transfected cells results in the suppression of cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in G2-M.
Decreased expression of one isoform of MCG10 has been observed in many forms of lung cancer, leading to speculation that MCG10 can act as a tumor suppressor.
Multiple alternatively spliced isoforms of MCG10 have been identified.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions:ELISA: 1:128,000Western Blot: 1-3ug/mlOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control:lysates of cell line HeLa
Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20°C.
Aliquots are stable for at least 12 monthsat -20°C.
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
Peptide Blocking:Corresponding peptide is available for Peptide Blocking studies.
See M2662-01C-P.
Antibody is typically 0.5mg/ml and peptide is supplied as a 100ul pellet.
When peptide is reconstituted in 200ul water, the concentration would also be 0.5mg/ml.
To start, the best ratio would be 1:1 (molar excess of peptide relative to antibody when identical volumes are mixed).
Mix equal volumes of peptide and antibody at the required dilution and leave at ambient temperature.
It is best is to have two identical blots to be incubated with equal amount of antibody, but one with the antibody pre-adsorbed to the peptide for 20min.
Then incubate and develop the two blots in parallel.
