This recombinant protein control fragment may be used for blocking experiments with the corresponding antibody, PA5-62566. In IHC/ICC and WB experiments, we recommend a 100x molar excess of the protein fragment control based on the concentration and the molecular weight. Pre-incubate the antibody-protein control fragment mixture for 30 min at room temperature.
The WBSCR22 gene, also known as Williams-Beuren Syndrome Chromosome Region 22, encodes a protein that participates in the biogenesis of the 40S ribosomal subunit. This gene is one of the 26 deleted in Williams-Beuren syndrome, which is characterized by cognitive delays, congenital heart and vascular diseases, and distinct facial features. WBSCR22 features a nuclear localization signal and an S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) binding motif typical of methyltransferases. The protein enhances cell survival and proliferation, with increased expression linked to poor prognosis in various cancers, including glioma and breast cancer. WBSCR22 modulates key signaling pathways such as Akt/GSK3B and beta-catenin/CyclinD1, and is a direct target of miR-146b-5p. Moreover, its downregulation suppresses tumor growth, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target in oncology.
