p62 Antibody – Guinea Pig Polyclonal

This gene encodes a member of the K homology domain-containing, RNA-binding, signal transduction-associated protein family. The encoded protein appears to have many functions and may be involved in a variety of cellular processes, including alternative splicing, cell cycle regulation, RNA 3'-end formation, tumorigenesis, and regulation of human immunodeficiency virus gene expression. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

KHDRBS1: a nuclear RNA-binding protein. May be involved in slicing and mRNA transport. Associates with src in mitosis. Binds to RNA via a heteronuclear ribonucleoprotein K homology domain. Exerts functionally separable effects on cell proliferation and survival, dependent on its ability to bind specifically to RNA.
