LIN28A Monoclonal Antibody

Western blot analysis of LIN28 recombinant protein by anti-LIN28A Monoclonal Antibody (Cat.#AM1485a). LIN28 (arrow) was detected using the purified Mab.

LIN28A Monoclonal Antibody

(LEFT) Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human testis tissue reacted with LIN28A Monoclonal Antibody (Cat.#AM1485a), which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. (RIGHT) Immunofluorescence analysis of LIN28A Monoclonal Antibody with paraffin-embedded human testis tissue. 0.025 mg/ml primary antibody was followed by PE-conjugated goat anti-mouse lgG (whole molecule). PE emits orange fluorescence.

Background:
LIN28A acts as a 'translational enhancer', driving specific mRNAs to polysomes and thus increasing the efficiency of protein synthesis. Its association with the translational machinery and target mRNAs results in an increased number of initiation events per molecule of mRNA and, indirectly, in stabilizing the mRNAs. Binds IGF2 mRNA, MYOD1 mRNA, ARBP/36B4 ribosomal protein mRNA and its own mRNA. It is essential for skeletal muscle differentiation through the translational up-regulation of IGF2 expression.
