RL35A Polyclonal Antibody

disease:Defects in RPL35A are the cause of Diamond-Blackfan anemia type 5 (DBA5) [MIM:612528]. DBA5 is a form of Diamond-Blackfan anemia, a congenital non-regenerative hypoplastic anemia that usually presents early in infancy. Diamond-Blackfan anemia is characterized by a moderate to severe macrocytic anemia, erythroblastopenia, and an increased risk of malignancy. 30 to 40% of Diamond-Blackfan anemia patients present with short stature and congenital anomalies, the most frequent being craniofacial (Pierre-Robin syndrome and cleft palate), thumb and urogenital anomalies.,function:Required for the proliferation and viability of hematopoietic cells. Plays a role in 60S ribosomal subunit formation. The protein was found to bind to both initiator and elongator tRNAs and consequently was assigned to the P site or P and A site.,miscellaneous:Knockdown of RPL35A in hematopoietic cell lines results in decreased cell proliferation, increased apoptosis, decreased biogenesis of mature 60S ribosomal subunit, and abnormal processing of large ribosomal subunit rRNA.,similarity:Belongs to the ribosomal protein L35Ae family.,
