Rabbit polyclonal anti-Nucleolin antibody is used to tag nucleolin for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques such as immunoblotting (105 kDa), immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of nucleolin in ribosome maturation, cytokinesis, nucleogenesis, cell proliferation and growth, and nucleo-cytoplasmic transport in exponentially growing eukaryotic cells.
Allgemeine Beschreibung
Rabbit polyclonal anti-Nucleolin antibody recognizes human, mouse, and rat nucleolin. Detection of the nucleolin band by immunoblotting is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Nucleolin also exhibits auto degradation, DNA and RNA helicase activities, and DNA-dependent ATPase activity. Nucleolin activities may be regulated by proteolysis, methylation, ADPribosylation and phosphorylation by several kinases, including casein kinase II (CK2), p34cdc2 and protein kinase C. Nucleolin might function as a cell surface receptor for lipoproteins, viruses, extracellular matrix, growth factors and other molecules. It interacts with telomerase, which is critical for the nucleolar localization of telomerase.
