Anti-DDX4 (DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) Box Polypeptide 4, DEAD Box Protein 4, MGC111074, Probable ATP-dep

DDX4 is an ATP-dependent DEAD-box RNA helicase found in the chromatoid body of the germ cells (1). This enzyme is specific to the germ cells and is necessary for germ cell development (2). Mouse DDX4 was shown to interact with Dicer suggesting its role in the microRNA-mediated, RNA silencing (1). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted antibody in 5% BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight., Immunoprecipitation: 1:50, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
