OAS3 is an interferon inducible protein that belongs to the 2-5A synthetase family, may play a role in mediating resistance to virus infection, control of cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. OAS3 synthesizes preferentially dimeric 2′,5′-oligoadenylate molecules. GTP can be an alternative substrate. OAS3 binds double-stranded RNA and polymerizes ATP into PPP(A2′P5′A)N oligomers, which activate the latent RNase L that, when activated, cleaves single-stranded RNAs. The protein is present at high level in placenta trophoblast.
Immunogen
OAS3 (Q9Y6K5, 1060-1097) This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the C-terminal region of human OAS3.
Physical form
Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide.
RNase L is an essential component in interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral signaling that showed antitumor effects in cancer. Cancer immunotherapy based on interferon has achieved encouraging results that indicate an applicable potential for cancer therapy. Here we showed that function of
