Other Names | mRNA-decapping enzyme 1A, 3---, Smad4-interacting transcriptional co-activator, Transcription factor SMIF, DCP1A, SMIF |
Target/Specificity | This DCP1A antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 146-175 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human DCP1A. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | DCP1A Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | DCP1A |
---|---|
Synonyms | SMIF |
Function | Necessary for the degradation of mRNAs, both in normal mRNA turnover and in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (PubMed:12417715). Removes the 7-methyl guanine cap structure from mRNA molecules, yielding a 5'- phosphorylated mRNA fragment and 7m-GDP (PubMed:12417715). Contributes to the transactivation of target genes after stimulation by TGFB1 (PubMed:11836524). Essential for embryonic development (PubMed:33813271). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, P-body. Nucleus. Note=Co- localizes with NANOS3 in the processing bodies (By similarity) Predominantly cytoplasmic, in processing bodies (PB) (PubMed:16364915) Nuclear, after TGFB1 treatment. Translocation to the nucleus depends on interaction with SMAD4 (PubMed:11836524) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q91YD3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11836524, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16364915} |
Tissue Location | Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney and pancreas. |

Background
Necessary for the degradation of mRNAs, both in normal mRNA turnover and in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Removes the 7-methyl guanine cap structure from mRNA molecules, yielding a 5'-phosphorylated mRNA fragment and 7m-GDP. Contributes to the transactivation of target genes after stimulation by TGFB1.
