Anti-MRPL12 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total MRPL12 protein.
MRPL12 (mitochondrial ribosomal protein L12) encodes a 21kDa subunit of mitochondrial ribosome. The protein is mapped on chromosome 17 (q25-qter). It is highly expressed in the colon.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human MRPL12.
Immunogen Range: 31-80
Application
Anti-MRPL12 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for capture ELISA and westen blot.
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. Study shows that MRPL12 may be involved in the differentiation of colonic epithelial cells and its reduced mitochondrial activity have been shown to be linked with tumor formation. It has been reported that mutated expression of MRPL12 associates with the growth retardation, neurological deterioration and mitochondrial translation deficiency.

Multiple respiratory chain deficiencies represent a common cause of mitochondrial diseases and are associated with a wide range of clinical symptoms. We report a subject, born to consanguineous parents, with growth retardation and neurological deterioration. Multiple respiratory chain deficiency was
Mitochondrial activity requires the expression of nuclear genes, whose products are part of multiproteic complexes leading to ATP production and delivery. We recently characterized a growth-activated mRNA encoding the human mitochondrial ribosomal MRPL12 protein, which is thought to act as

The core human mitochondrial transcription machinery comprises a single subunit bacteriophage-related RNA polymerase, POLRMT, the high mobility group box DNA-binding protein h-mtTFA/TFAM, and two transcriptional co-activator proteins, h-mtTFB1 and h-mtTFB2 that also have rRNA methyltransferase activity.
