General description

Aly is a nuclear chaperone protein that may modulate DNA binding, mRNA synthesis, and dimerization of basic region-leucine zipper proteins. Mouse Monoclonal Anti-Aly antibody recognizes human and Xenopus Aly.
Anti-Aly antibody, Mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the 11G5 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (SP2/O) and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with recombinant human Aly/REF protein. Aly is also known as mREF1-I which is an RNA-binding protein that contains an RNA-binding domain and is recruited to the mRNA-protein complex (mRNP) complexes during the mRNA splicing.

Immunogen

recombinant human Aly/REF protein.

Application

Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Western Blotting (1 paper)
Co-immunoprecipitation and western blot studies were performed in Hela cells using a monoclonal mouse anti-Aly antibody. The results indicated that Aly which was observed as a 30 kDa band interacted with the Herpes Simplex Virus I protein, ICP27.
Mouse Monoclonal Anti-Aly antibody can be used for immunocytochemistry, immunoprecipitation, indirect ELISA, microarray and western blot (0.5-1.0μg/ml) assays.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Excess of recombinant expression of Aly in the cells increases both the rate and efficiency of spliced and unspliced mRNA export (in vivo) from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Aly is dissociated from the mRNAs after the export to the cytoplasm.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, and 15 mM sodium azide.
