    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    hnRNP C1/C2 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total hnRNP C1/C2 protein. This antibody does not cross-react with other hnRNPCL1 or RALY proteins.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Monkey

    The antigen sequence used to produce this antibody shares 100% sequence homology with the species listed here, but reactivity has not been tested or confirmed to work by CST. Use of this product with these species is not covered under our Product Performance Guarantee.

    Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology:

    Hamster, Xenopus, Bovine, Dog, Pig, Horse, Guinea Pig

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human hnRNP C1/C2 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C1/C2 (hnRNP C1/C2) has multiple biological functions including transcriptional regulation, DNA repair, and RNA processing. hnRNP C1/C2 acts as a ‘molecular ruler’ in the mRNA processing pathway, committing nascent transcripts from the chromatin template to the mRNA export pathway once the nascent transcript becomes longer than 200-300 nucleotides (1). hnRNP C1/C2 associates with SWI/SNF and NurD family members to form the locus control region (LCR)-associated remodeling complex (LARC), which binds to β-globin gene promoter to prevent transcriptional silencing. Studies indicate that without hnRNP C1/C2, LARC does not associate with its target DNA sequence (2,3). hnRNP C1/C2 and other hnRNP family members interact with DNA damage response (DDR) proteins (4). hnRNP proteins regulate double stranded break (DSB) repair by promoting either homologous recombination (HR) or non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) (4). hnRNP C1/C2 downregulates the expression of miR-21, which leads to the increased expression of programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) protein in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) (5). Research studies have shown that silencing of hnRNP C1/C2 renders GBM cells more susceptible to apoptosis (5).
