PDCD4 polyclonal antibody Background :
The transformation suppressor gene Pdcd-4 (programmed cell death gene 4) inhibits the tumor-promoter mediated transformation of mouse keratinocytes and is a potential tumor suppressor gene in the development of human lung cancer. Biochemical analysis suggests that the Pdcd-4 protein is involved in protein translation as well as in nuclear events. Pdcd-4 directly interacts with the RNA helicase eIF4A and inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with the assembly of the cap-dependent translation initiation complex. Pdcd-4 also suppresses the transactivation of AP-1 responsive promoters by c-Jun, suggesting that the transformation-suppressor activity of Pdcd-4 might be due, at least in part, to the inhibition of c-Jun activity. In addition to affecting c-Jun phosphorylation, Pdcd-4 blocks the recruitment of the co-activator p300 by c-Jun.  Product :

Describe :

Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.
