Anti-YTHDF2 Antibody

YTH domain-containing family protein 2 (YTHDF2), also known as CLL-associated antigen KW-14, High-glucose-regulated protein 8, Renal carcinoma antigen NY-REN-2, is also encoded by the gene name YTHDF2 and HGRG8. YTHDF2 recognizes specifically and binds N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-containing RNAs. M6A is a modification present at internal sites of mRNAs and some non-coding RNAs. Recent studies have shown that YTHDF2 may play an important role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing, processing and stability. Additionally, YTHDF2 has been shown to act as a regulator of mRNA stability. And in the process of binding to m6A-containing mRNAs, YTHDF2 has been implicated to localize to mRNA decay sites, such as processing bodies (P-bodies), which leads to mRNA degradation.

~62 kDa observed. Uncharacterized band(s) may appear in some lysates.

Epitope: Localization to mRNA processing bodies (P-bodies)
