Product Overview
Clone 23P32 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes interferon-inducible double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase activator A (gene PRKRA) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC. The predicted molecular weight is 34.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 34 kDa.
PACT (PRKRA) is a double-stranded RNA-binding protein that can activate the kinase PKR in response to cellular stress, leading to phosphorylation of eIF2α and a shutdown of translation. It also partners with Dicer in small RNA processing, and PRKRA mutations are associated with an inherited form of dystonia.
