CPSF160/CPSF1 (cleavage and polyadenylation specific factor 1, 160 kDa subunit) is a subunit of the cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) involved in mammalian mRNA 3’-end processing. CPSF, along with CstF (cleavage and stimulation factor), is critical for the recognition of cis-acting sequence elements on the pre-mRNA that dictate the site of cleavage and subsequent polyadenylation. CPSF exists as a complex of four proteins that includes CPSF160, CPSF100, CPSF73, and CPSF30. CPSF160 is responsible for recognizing the (AAUAAA) poly (A) signal for cleavage and polyadenylation.
Alternative names for
CPSF160 Antibody include CPSF1 antibody, CPSF-1 antibody, CPSF160 antibody, CPSF-160 antibody, cleavage and polyadenylation specific factor 1 antibody, 160kD antibody.
