p68 RNA Helicase Antibody (A-5) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody that detects p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) in mouse, rat, and human samples through various applications including western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) is a crucial nuclear protein known for RNA-dependent ATPase activity, which is essential for various cellular processes, including RNA metabolism and gene expression regulation. p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) plays a significant role in organ differentiation during development, highlighting involvement in embryogenesis. p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) is expressed during early neural development and in various mesodermal tissues across different chordate embryos, indicating a vital role in developmental biology. Expression levels of p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) increase in serum-induced quiescent cell lines, suggesting potential involvement in cellular responses to growth signals. p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) may act as a coactivator for estrogen receptor alpha and associates with transcriptional coactivators such as CBP and p300, underscoring importance in transcriptional regulation. Under normal conditions, p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) localizes to the nucleus, and during late telophase, colocalizes with fibrillarin to form nascent nucleoli, indicating a role in ribosome biogenesis. p68 RNA helicase (DDX5) may function as a heterodimer with p72 RNA helicase, further expanding functional repertoire in cellular processes.

I am using p68 RNA Helicase (A-5): sc-166167 monoclonal antibody to stain paraffin embedded tissue. Do you recommend antigen retrieval when using this antibody?

Asked by: AbPolly
We recommend performing antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) and heat. The full protocol can be found here: https://www.scbt.com/scbt/resources/protocols/immunoperoxidase-staining

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Antibody!Our lab bought this Ab one year ago. We are very happy with this Ab since it worked very very well for both WB and co IP.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from low dillution to reduce unspecific bandsAntibody was used at a concentration of 1ug/ml (1:1000) as indicated on the data sheet. I would suggest using the antibody at 1:5,000 or even 1:10,000 to reduce unspecific bands.
