Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-RTL1 [13C11]
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary Antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human ; Mouse
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IF ; WB
  • Description: RTL1 is an imprinted gene and is expressed from the paternal chromosome (Hagan et al., 2009; Lin et al., 2003). In human, excessive RTL1 expression and decreased RTL1 expression are relevant to upd(14)pat-like and upd(14)mat-like phenotypes, respectively(Ogata and Kagami, 2016). Upd(14)pat results in a unique phenotype characterized by facial abnormality, a small, bell-shaped thorax and abdominal wall defects, and upd(14)mat leads to pre- and postnatal growth failure and early onset of puberty. In sheep, excessive RTL1 expression is associated with muscle hypertrophy(Byrne et al., 2010). In mouse, null mice died in late fetal stages due to placenta defect (Ito et al., 2015; Sekita et al., 2008). Mis-regulation of Rtl1 is also associated with hepatocarcinogenesis (Riordan et al., 2013).
