DHX8 Antibody

DHX8 is a member of the DEAH box family of proteins that possesses several conserved motifs which include the highly conserved DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) amino acid sequence motif. The major activity of DEAH box proteins is to function as ATP-dependent RNA helicases. RNA helicases play an important role in all aspects of RNA metabolism and function which include pre-mRNA splicing, RNA synthesis, RNA degradation, RNA export, RNA translation, RNA secondary structure formation, ribosome biogenesis, and the assembly of RNP complexes. DHX8 is the human ortholog of the yeast Prp22 protein. DHX8 has been demonstrated to function in the release of RNA from the splicesome and the nuclear export of spliced mRNA.

Alternative names for DHX8 Antibody include ATP-dependent RNA helicase DHX8 antibody, DEAH box protein 8 antibody, RNA helicase HRH1 antibody, DDX8 antibody, HRH1 antibody, PRP22 antibody, PRPF22 antibody.
