Gene Information

human ... DCP1A(55802)

General description

DCP1A is an mRNA decapping enzyme that is involved in TGF-β signaling. DCP1A is known to be hyper-phosphorylated during mitosis, cellular stress, neuronal differentiation and brain development. DCP1A has also been implicated in translational arrest.
Rabbit Anti-DCP1A antibody recognizes rat, human, chicken, bovine, canine, zebrafish, and mouse DCP1A.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human DCP1A

Application

Rabbit Anti-DCP1A antibody is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 1.25 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Decapping is a key step in general and regulated mRNA decay. The protein encoded by this gene is a decapping enzyme. This protein and another decapping enzyme form a decapping complex, which interacts with the nonsense-mediated decay factor hUpf1 and may be recruited to mRNAs containing premature termination codons. This protein also participates in the TGF-beta signaling pathway.Decapping is a key step in general and regulated mRNA decay. The protein encoded by this gene is a decapping enzyme.

Decapping protein 1a (Dcp1a) is found in P-bodies and functions in mRNA cap removal prior to its degradation. The function and binding partners of Dcp1a have been thoroughly studied, however its expression pattern is still unclear. In this study we

We have shown previously that poliovirus infection disrupts cytoplasmic P-bodies in infected mammalian cells. During the infectious cycle, poliovirus causes the directed cleavage of Dcp1a and Pan3, coincident with the dispersion of P-bodies. We now show that expression of Dcp1a
