It plays a key role in the assembly and stabilization of the U4, U5, and U6 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins into the mature tri-snRNP complex. Prpf6 acts as a bridging factor within the spliceosome and is critical for ensuring efficient and accurate pre-mRNA splicing.\u003cp\u003eIn zebrafish, Prpf6 is an ortholog of the human PRPF6 gene. The zebrafish and human proteins share a high degree of conservation, particularly in domains involved in protein-protein interactions within the spliceosome. This evolutionary conservation supports the use of zebrafish as a reliable model for studying the functional roles of spliceosomal components and for understanding the molecular basis of splicing-related diseases in humans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZebrafish Prpf6 may have isoforms generated through alternative splicing. These isoforms may differ in their regulatory features or expression patterns, enabling context-specific or tissue-specific control of splicing events during development or in response to physiological signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring embryonic development in zebrafish, Prpf6 is broadly expressed in actively proliferating and transcriptionally active tissues, such as the central nervous system, eye, and somites. Its function is critical for cell viability, as defects in pre-mRNA splicing can result in misexpression of genes required for cell cycle progression, differentiation, and organogenesis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn humans, mutations in PRPF6 have been linked to retinitis pigmentosa and other splicing-associated disorders. Because of the conserved function and expression of Prpf6 in zebrafish, it serves as a valuable model for investigating the cellular consequences of spliceosomal dysfunction and for testing therapeutic approaches targeting RNA processing defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWestern blotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e compare relative abundance and activation-state changes across conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunofluorescence:\u003c\/strong\u003e visualize subcellular distribution and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes, which can broaden the epitope footprint and may increase sensitivity in some contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=PRPF6 - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=PRPF6 - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=PRPF6 - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/PRPF6 - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=PRPF6+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"0.5mg\/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53047330799981,"sku":"RZ1283","price":539.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_a379424d-ee5a-430e-9466-ea5f5a5910d4.jpg?v=1772019470","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/zebrafish-prpf6-antibody-pre-mrna-processing-factor-6-bha17136478","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
