The MBNL1 Monoclonal Antibody (CAB5149) is a high-quality antibody developed for reliable detection and analysis of target proteins. This gene encodes a member of the muscleblind protein family which was initially described in Drosophila melanogaster. The encoded protein is a C3H-type zinc finger protein that modulates alternative splicing of pre-mRNAs. Muscleblind proteins bind specifically to expanded dsCUG RNA but not to normal size CUG repeats and may thereby play a role in the pathophysiology of myotonic dystrophy. Mice lacking this gene exhibited muscle abnormalities and cataracts. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described but the full-length natures of only some have been determined. The different isoforms are thought to have different binding specificities and/or splicing activities.
This antibody is validated for use in WB, IF/ICC, ELISA applications and has demonstrated reactivity against Human samples.
