Regulator of nonsense transcripts 3B recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

UPF3B (UPF3 regulator of nonsense transcripts homolog B) is a nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling protein. It is expressed in all adult tissues. It shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasmic region. It consists of a conserved domain that participates in interaction with the exon junction complex (EJC) protein Y14. Furthermore, nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) mechanism is highly dependent on the Y14/UPF3B interaction. In Y14/UPF3B interaction pathway, EJC proteins act as adhering points for the formation of distinguishable NMD-activating mRNPs. For instance, during NMD UPF3B binds to the spliced β-globin mRNA in vivo to eliminate mRNAs containing a premature translation termination codon.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) eliminates mRNAs containing a premature translation termination codon through the recruitment of the conserved NMD factors UPF1, UPF2 and UPF3. In humans, a dynamic assembly pathway allows UPF1 to join UPF2 and UPF3 recruited to the

Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) bearing premature translation termination codons (PTCs) are degraded by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

DNA mismatch repair-deficient colorectal cancers (CRCs) accumulate numerous frameshift mutations at repetitive sequences recognized as microsatellite instability (MSI). When coding mononucleotide repeats (cMNRs) are affected, tumors accumulate frameshift mutations and premature termination codons (PTC) potentially leading to truncated proteins. Nonsense-mediated

The subcellular localization of the nonsense mediated decay (NMD) of mRNA transcripts bearing premature termination codons has been controversial. Recently, it has been demonstrated that RNA tethering of key mediators of NMD, including human UPF3B, accurately recreates NMD. Here, we
