Rabbit Anti-OAS1, CT (OAS1, OIAS, 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthase 1, E18/E16, p46/p42 OAS)
OAS1, OIAS, 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthase 1, E18/E16, p46/p42 OAS

OAS1 is an interferon inducible protein that may play a role in mediating resistance to virus infection, control of cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. It binds double-stranded RNA and polymerizes ATP into PPP(A2'P5'A)N oligomers, which activate the latent RNase L that, when activated, cleaves single-stranded RNAs. This protein is associated with different subcellular fractions such as mitochondrial, nuclear, and rough/smooth microsomal fractions.
