The RTTN Antibody (PAC062367) is a powerful tool for researchers studying the R2TP complex and its role in regulating cellular processes. This polyclonal antibody, generated in rabbits, specifically binds to the RTTN protein and is validated for use in immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation applications.RTTN, also known as Rotatin, is a key player in the assembly and regulation of the R2TP complex, which is involved in various cellular functions such as protein complex assembly, protein folding, and DNA damage response. Dysregulation of the R2TP complex has been linked to diseases such as cancer and neurological disorders, making RTTN an important target for further investigation.
With the ability to detect RTTN in various cell types, this antibody is ideal for researchers in molecular biology, cell biology, and genetics who are interested in studying the mechanisms underlying cellular processes and disease development. By using the RTTN Antibody in their experiments, researchers can gain valuable insights into the intricate functions of the R2TP complex and its potential implications for therapeutic interventions.

NCBI Summary:
This gene encodes a large protein whose specific function is unknown. Absence of the orthologous protein in mouse results in embryonic lethality with deficient axial rotation, abnormal differentiation of the neural tube, and randomized looping of the heart tube during development. In human, mutations in this gene are associated with polymicrogyria with seizures. In human fibroblasts this protein localizes at the ciliary basal bodies. Given the intracellular localization of this protein and the phenotypic effects of mutations, this gene is suspected of playing a role in the maintenance of normal ciliary structure which in turn effects the developmental process of left-right organ specification, axial rotation, and perhaps notochord development.
