General description

MRPL12 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein L12) encodes a 21kDa subunit of the mitochondrial ribosome. It is highly expressed in the colon.

Immunogen

mitochondrial ribosomal protein L12, mitochondrial Precursor 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

MRPL12 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein) is involved in the mitochondrial translation. It directly interacts with the mitochondrial RNA polymerase (POLRMT) and triggers the mitochondrial transcriptional process. Research shows that the interaction between MRPL12 and POLRMT indicates its participation in the regulatory mechanism that coordinates mitochondrial transcription with translation and/or ribosome biogenesis during human mitochondrial gene expression. The study shows that MRPL12 may be involved in the differentiation of colonic epithelial cells, and its reduced mitochondrial activity has been shown to be linked with tumor formation. It has been reported that mutated expression of MRPL12 links with the growth delay, neurological deterioration and mitochondrial translation deficiency.

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.
