General description

Enhancer of mRNA-decapping protein 4 (EDC4), also known as human enhancer of decapping large subunit (HEDLS) or Ge-1, is characterized with an N-terminal WD40 repeat and a C-terminal domain which interacts with mRNA-decapping enzyme subunit 2 (Dcp2), and mediates EDC4 oligomerization and P-body localization .
The EDC4 gene maps on human chromosome 16q22.1.

Specificity

Anti-EDC4 (N-terminal) specifically recognizes human EDC4.

Application

Anti-EDC4 (N-terminal) antibody has been used in:
  • immunoprecipitation
  • immunofluorescence
  • immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Human enhancer of mRNA-decapping protein 4 (EDC4) associates with hDcp2 and stimulates hDcp2 activity in vitro as well as mediating the interaction between mRNA-decapping enzyme subunit 1 & 2 (DCP1 and DCP2).
Interaction of processing-body components, EDC4 and Dcp1a is essential for the post-transcriptional regulation of interleukin (IL)-6.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phos­phate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

Store at –20 °C. For continuous use, the product may be stored at 2–8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots at –20 °C. Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Storage in “frost-free” freezers is also not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.

Decapping is a key step in mRNA turnover. However, the composition and regulation of the human decapping complex is poorly understood. Here, we identify three proteins that exist in complex with the decapping enzyme subunits hDcp2 and hDcp1: hEdc3, Rck/p54
