Mouse Anti-MTERF (Transcription Termination Factor, Mitochondrial, Mitochondrial Transcription Termination Factor 1, mTERF, MGC131634)
Transcription termination factor. Binds to a 28bp region within the tRNA(Leu(uur)) gene at a position immediately adjacent to and downstream of the 16S rRNA gene; this region comprises a tridecamer sequence critical for directing accurate termination. Binds DNA along the major grove and promotes DNA bending and partial unwinding. Promotes base flipping. Probably requires one or more components for termination activity.
Applications
Suitable for use in ELISA. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution
