Biological background
Biological context: May regulate RNA splicing or metabolism in a specific subset of developing neurons. Binds single strand RNA.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus., tissue context: Brain. Expression restricted to astrocytes..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare RIOK1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of RIOK1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify RIOK1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Serine/threonine-protein kinase RIO1 is an enzyme that in humans is encode by the RIOK1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene competes with pICln for inclusion in the protein arginine methyltransferase 5 complex. This complex targets substrates for dimethylation. The encoded protein is essential for the last steps in the maturation of 40S subunits.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus.
- Tissue details: Brain. Expression restricted to astrocytes.
- Research category: Channels,Metabolism,Plasma Membrane,Signal Transduction
