General description

Dyskeratosis congenita 1 (DKC1) gene encodes dyskerin, which is a 514-amino-acid protein. This gene consists of 15 exons comprising a region of 15kb, with the internal exons size range of 65-185bp.

Immunogen

H/ACA ribonucleoprotein complex subunit 4 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mutation in the DKC1 (Dyskeratosis congenita 1) gene will lead to the X-linked form of the disease called as Dyskeratosis congenita (DKC), a rare inherited bone marrow-failure syndrome. DKC is characterised by multiple features including nail dystrophy, abnormal skin pigmentation and increased susceptibility to cancer. Altered DKC1 gene will cause depletion in bone marrow production which is one of the major causes for premature death. DKC is a nucleolar protein with multiple roles including centromere function, rRNA transcription and nucleocytoplasmic trafficking etc.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
