Gene Information

human ... RBPMS(11030)

General description

RNA-binding protein with multiple splicing (UniProt Q93062; also known as Heart and RRM expressed sequence, Hermes, RBP-MS) is encoded by the RBPMS (also known as HERMES) gene (Gene ID 11030) in human. RBPMS is a member of the RRM (RNA recognition motif) family of RNA-binding proteins. Transcriptome-wide study using photoactivatable-ribonucleoside-enhanced crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (PAR-CLIP) in HEK293 cells reveals both exonic mature and intronic pre-mRNA-binding sites, in agreement with the nuclear and cytoplasmic localization of the RRM family proteins. RBPMS is found to be exclusively expressed in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and displaced RGCs (dRGCs). RBPMS expression can therefore be utitized as a RGC marker, and the RBPMS gene promoter could be utilized for driving RGC-specific transgene expression.

Specificity

Expected to react with all five spliced isoforms (UniProt Q93062-1 through Q93062-5).

Immunogen

Epitope: N-terminal region.
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to a sequence from the N-terminal region of human RBPMS.

Application

Anti-RBPMS Antibody is an antibody against RBPMS for use in Western Blotting, Immunofluorescence.

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected endogenous RBPMS in mouse and rat retina extracts, as well as exogenously expressed human RBPMS in transfected HEK293T cells (Rodriguez, A.R., et al. (2014). J. Comp. Neurol. 522(6):1411-1443).
Immunofluorescence Analysis: A representative lot detected RBPMS immunoreactivity primarily associated with cell bodies located in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) of paraformaldehyde-fixed mouse retinas by fluorescent immunohistochemistry using whole-mounted retinas (Rodriguez, A.R., et al. (2014). J. Comp. Neurol. 522(6):1411-1443).
