Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes 2-5A-dependent ribonuclease (gene Rnasel) in mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 83.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 83 kDa.
RNase L (2-5A-dependent ribonuclease) is an interferon-induced endoribonuclease of innate antiviral defense. It is switched on by 2′,5′-oligoadenylates made by OAS enzymes after sensing viral double-stranded RNA, then cleaves viral and cellular single-stranded RNA, including rRNA, which halts protein synthesis and can trigger apoptosis.

Immunogen
Recombinant mouse RNase L/Rnasel fragment (Glu24–Ser735), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with mouse and rat. UniProt places 2-5A-dependent ribonuclease in the cytoplasm and mitochondrion. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (mouse): Expressed in spleen, thymus, lung, testis, kidney, liver and heart. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
