The VCX3A vcx3a (Catalog #MBS605618) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The VCX-A (Variable charge X-linked protein 3, Variably charged protein X-A, VCX-8r, Variable charge protein on X with eight repeats, VCX3A, VCX3, VCX8R, VCXA) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. MyBioSource\'s VCX-A can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA), Western Blot (WB).Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the VCX3A vcx3a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
The VCX3A vcx3a product has the following accession number(s) (GI #48762947) (NCBI Accession #NP_057463.2) (Uniprot Accession #Q9NNX9). Researchers may be interested in using Bioinformatics databases such as those available at The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website for more information about accession numbers and the proteins they represent. Even researchers unfamiliar with bioinformatics databases will find the NCBI databases to be quite user friendly and useful.

Please refer to the product datasheet for known applications of a given antibody. We\'ve tested the VCX-A (Variable charge X-linked protein 3, Variably charged protein X-A, VCX-8r, Variable charge protein on X with eight repeats, VCX3A, VCX3, VCX8R, VCXA) with the following immunoassay(s):
Western Blot (WB) (Western blot detection of VCX-An expression in 293T transfected cell lysate (lane 1) and non-tranfected 293T lysate (lane 2).)
VCX-An is only expressed in testis and may play a role in spermatogenesis or in sex ratio distortion. It is a 186aa peptide that has an estimated molecular weight of ~20kD. It was recently identified that VCX-An is an inhibitor of the decapping enzyme DCP2 and that it stabilized mRNA. It is a noncanonical cap-binding protein that binds to capped RNA but not cap structures lacking RNA. Defects in VCX-An are associated with some forms of X-linked nonspecific mental retardation.
Immunogen: Partial recombinant human VCX-A (aa2-100) with a GST tag. In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing VCX3A are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as VCX3A may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
