RNA Processing & Modification Antibodies | ||||||||
RNA processing and modifications to RNA are crucial to numerous cell functions and give insight into a multitude of biological processes that are influenced by RNA activities, such as RNA interference. RNA interference (RNAi) is a gene-regulating process in which genes are silenced by RNA molecules such as shRNA, siRNA, and miRNA, usually destroying mRNA molecules and lowering protein expression. RNAi and gene silencing antibodies target the proteins involved in the various steps of gene silencing as part of the RNA interface. Once RNA is transcribed from DNA, it can undergo a number of processing events, including splicing, capping and additional modifications before it carries out its final function in the cell. Various RNA modifications such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant mRNA modification, are of interest to researchers investigating the epigenetic modifications’ consequences and especially how they contribute to the development of diseases such as cancer.

Chromatin & Transcription Antibodies | ||||||||
Antibodies that target proteins associated with chromatin and transcription such as histone deacetylases (HDACs), histone acetyltransferases (HATs), histone methyltransferases (HMTs), and heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) are important to understanding the epigenetic regulation of chromatin structure and its function. Chromatin is involved in crucial functions of the cell including division, replication, and gene expression. | ||||||||
Cell Structure & Function Antibodies | ||||||||
Cell structure & function antibodies are used for investigating the structure and function of the cell, linked to DNA damage & repair, cell cycle, apoptosis, cellular structure, and trafficking. These antibodies can be used for cell structure research to connect structural features of the cell, such as the cytoskeleton, including microtubules and microfilament, to their function. | ||||||||
Signal Transduction Antibodies | ||||||||
Signal transduction, or cell signaling, is the process by which various signals are transmitted throughout the cell in a cascading series of extracellular and intracellular molecular events involving lipids, proteins, and ions. Often it involves a signal from a secreted growth factor, hormone or other extracellular signaling molecule with binding to receptors at the cell surface, including receptor tyrosine kinases and G-protein coupled receptors, which then transduce the signal intracellularly. A wide range of antibodies are involved in signal transduction, such as cell surface receptor and kinase antibodies, intracellular kinase and adaptor protein antibodies, phosphatase antibodies, and secreted growth factor antibodies. Signaling pathways and their fluid dynamic processes can be studied by researchers aiming to learn more about their far-reaching morphological effects and especially their influence on the regulation of gene expression. Signal transduction antibodies can also offer insight into various pathways and their role in the development of diseases, for example, Alzheimer’s, lupus, cancer and rheumatoid arthritis.

Metabolism Antibodies | ||||||||
Metabolism is the chemical process catalyzed by certain enzymes which enables organisms to convert various substances to energy in order to sustain life. Metabolism antibodies are crucial for studying glucose, lipid, protein, and nucleotide metabolism. | ||||||||
Immunology & Inflammation Antibodies | ||||||||
Immunology and inflammation antibodies are a broad set of antibodies ideal for investigating the complex immune system, including cell marker and receptor antibodies, cytokine antibodies, and other immunology antibodies. | ||||||||
Other Primary Antibodies | ||||||||
Antibodies used for various applications, including the recently discovered gene editing and genetic engineering system known as the CRISPR/Cas9 system. The CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) and Cas9 (CRISPR associated system or CRISPR associated protein 9 nuclease) system delivers RNA-guided nuclease (Cas9) and specific guide RNAs (gRNA) into a cell.
