AGO4 antibody (N-Term)

Catalog No. ABIN6971369

Product Details anti-AGO4 Antibody

Target: AGO4 (EIF2C4) (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2C, 4 (EIF2C4))

Binding Specificity: N-Term

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This AGO4 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB)

Characteristics: Argonaute 4 (Ago4, aka EIF2C4) is a member of the Argonaute family of proteins involved in RNAi mediated gene silencing through siRNA and miRNA effectors. The Argonaute proteins are part of RISC, the RNAi Induced Silencing Complex. Ago4 lacks RNase activity and does not appear to cleave target mRNA molecules. It binds to microRNAs (miRNAs) and represses the translation of mRNAs which are complementary to them. Ago4 has both a PAZ and a PIWI domain, indicative of the Argonaute family of proteins. Ago4 antibody (pAb) was raised in a Rabbit host. It has been validated for use in Western blot, it has been shown to react with Human samples.

Purification: Affinity Purified

Immunogen: This Ago4 antibody was raised against a peptide within the N-terminal region of human Ago4.

Isotype: IgG
