Anti-DDX20 antibody produced in rabbit Prestige Antibodies(R) Powered by Atlas Antibodies, affinity isolated antibody, buffered aqueous glycerol solution

DDX20 (DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box polypeptide 20) belongs to DExD/H-box family of proteins. This family is characterized by Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp/His motif present in their helicase domain. DDX20 is made of 824 amino acids. It is an RNA helicase and forms a part of the SMN (survival-of-motor-neurons) complex. The molecular weight of this protein is 103kDa. DDX20 has a hydrophobic N-terminal, and two hydrophilic regions in its C-terminal. In humans, its expression varies in accordance with the type of tissue, and shows a high level of expression in testis. During spermatogenesis in humans, DDX20 is localized to the chromtoid body structure in germ cells. This gene is located at human chromosome 1p21.1-p13.2.
