Anti-MEX3B

This gene encodes an RNA-binding phosphoprotein that is part of the MEX3 (muscle excess 3) family of translational regulators. The encoded protein contains N-terminal nuclear export and nuclear localization signals and is exported from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. The protein binds to RNA via two KH domains and also colocalizes with MEX3A, Dcp1A decapping factor and Argonaute proteins within P (processing) bodies. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012], Protein function: RNA-binding protein. May be involved in post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000. Cellular localization: Nucleus . Cytoplasm . Cytoplasm, P-body . Cytoplasmic granule . Predominantly expressed in the cytoplasm and shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus through the CRM1 export pathway. Localization to P-bodies is dependent on 14-3-3.
