Gene Information
human ... QKI(9444)
General description
The gene QKI (quaking) is mapped to human chromosome 6q26. It belongs to signal transduction and activation of RNA (STAR) protein family. QKI contains an RNA-binding domain (KH domain) and different splicing variants of QKI are present in frontal cortex of human brain.

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set 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
QKI (quaking) is suggested to be essential for oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation in human brain. Disturbance in QKI splicing is associated with schizophrenia. Mouse homolog of QKI participates in neural development and myelination. It also controls the production of circRNAs during epithelial-mesenchymal transition. QKI is a regulator of alternative splicing. In lung cancer cells, it suppresses proliferation by regulating alternative splicing of NUMB (protein S171) gene.
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:
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.
