General description
Trinucleotide repeat containing 6A (TNRC6A) act as a translational repressor of mRNA. It is an 182kDa protein with repression domains and many glycine/tryptophan repeats. It is commonly referred as GW182 (Glycine-tryptophan protein of 182kDa).
Immunogen
Trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 6A protein 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
Trinucleotide repeat containing 6A (TNRC6A) interacts with argonaute protein and is recruited to the target miRNA for gene silencing. TNRC6A binds with the cytoplasmic poly (A)-binding protein (PABP) and PAN2 (PAN deadenylation complex subunit 2)-PAN3 deadenylase complex. It acts as a scaffold protein needed for the assemblage of multiprotein complexes which play a role in silencing miRNA targets.
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:
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.

GW/P bodies contain two TNRC6A protein isoforms (GW182 and TNGW1) that function as translational repressors of mRNA through Ago2-mediated RNA silencing. Autoantibodies to GW/P body components GW182, Ge-1 and Ago2 have previously been correlated with clinical autoimmune diseases including neurological

GW182 is an 182 kDa protein with multiple glycine/tryptophan repeats (GW or WG) playing a central role in siRNA- and miRNA-mediated gene silencing. GW182 interacts with its functional partner Argonaute proteins (AGO) via multiple domains to exert its silencing activity

GW182 family proteins are essential for microRNA-mediated gene silencing in animal cells. They are recruited to miRNA targets through direct interactions with Argonaute proteins and promote target silencing. They do so by repressing translation and enhancing mRNA turnover. Although the
