Description

General description

Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) is a RNA-binding protein that is associated to polysomes and may be involved in the transport of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Defects in FMR1 are the cause of Fragile X syndrome, which is a common genetic disease characterized by moderate to severe mental retardation, macroorchidism, large ears, prominent jaw, and high-pitched, jocular speech. The defect in most fragile X syndrome patients results from an amplification of a CGG repeat region which is directly in front of the coding region.

Specificity

Human and mouse FMRP. The epitope is localized in the N-terminal half of FMRP. Cross reaction with FXR protein may be detected in cases of high expression of the latter proteins.

Immunogen

Fusion protein with a full length FMRP (human).

Application

Anti-Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein Antibody, clone 1C3 detects level of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein & has been published & validated for use in ELISA, IC, IH, IH(P) & WB.

Immunohistochemistry:
Frozen and paraffin sections. 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used.

ELISA:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used in ELISA.

Detection of FMRP on Blood Smears:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used.

Immunocytochemistry:
A 1:500-1:5,000 dilution of a previous lot was used on transfected cells. Light fixation (2% PFA, permeabilize with 0.1% triton in block only)

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
