General description

DDX56 (DEAD, Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp, box helicase 56) is a novel nucleolar, helicase-type protein belonging to the "DEAD-box" protein family. It has a homo-oligomeric structure with molecular mass of 61.5kDa. It is located to chromosome 7p12.

Probable ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX56 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

DDX56 (DEAD, Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp, box helicase 56) is a putative ATP-dependent RNA helicase mainly involved in the necleolar activity. During ribosome synthesis, it helps to assemble 60S ribosomal subunit, and in unwinding of nucleic acid duplexes. Its DEAD-box motif is responsible for the intrinsic ATPase activity, which varies depending on the polynucleotide presence. DDX56 also participates in ribosome biogenesis. It is also associated with the virion assembly pathway. Its enzymatic action alters the ability to establish infection of West Nile virus (WNV) particles.

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.

Although flaviviruses encode their own helicases, evidence suggests that cellular helicases are also required for replication and/or assembly of these viruses. By and large, the mechanisms of action for viral and cellular helicases are not known. Moreover, in some cases
