A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of DDX6 antibody, Alternative Names: DDX6 control peptide, DDX6 antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-DDX6 Blocking Peptide, Dead Blocking Peptide, Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp Box Polypeptide 6 Blocking Peptide, DDX6, DDX-6, DDX 6, DDX-6 Blocking Peptide, DDX 6 Blocking Peptide
DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of this family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. DDX6 encodes a DEAD box protein. It may contribute to the cell proliferation and carcinogenesis.
