Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
Animals were immunized with purified nuclei from Xenopus laevis oocytes.
Spleen cells were fused with Sp2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells.
The antibody reacts with a conserved phosphorylated epitope on SR proteins.
SR proteins are a family of proteins that have pre-mRNA splicing activity (SR comes from the sequences of consecutive serine and arginine residues in these proteins). The family consists of at least 6 proteins with masses of 75000, 70000, 55000, 40000, 30000 and 20000 daltons.
