Product Name :
FXR2 (E576) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Fragile X syndrome is the most frequent form of inherited mental retardation and is the result of transcriptional silencing of the FMR1 gene on the X chromosome. The FMR1 gene contains a distinct CpG dinucleotide repeat located in the 5' untranslated region of the gene, and in the fragile X syndrome this tandem repeat is substantially amplified and subjected to extensive methylation and enhanced transcriptional silencing. The FMR1 protein (or FMRP) is an RNA-binding protein that associates with polyribosomes and is a likely component of a messenger ribonuclear protein (mRNP) particle. It contains several features that are characteristics of RNA-binding proteins, including two hnRNPK homology (KH) domains and an RGG amino acid motif (RGG box). FMR1 can also interact with two fragile X syndrome related factors, FXR1 and FXR2, and these proteins form heterodimers through their N-terminal coilcoiled domains. FMR1 localizes to both the nucleus and the cytoplasm, and since it contains both a nuclear localization signal and a nuclear export signal it is also implicated in the nucleo-cytoplasmic transport of mRNAs. Alternative Name :
