CIRBP/Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein human recombinant, expressed in E. coli, >=90% (SDS-PAGE)

CIRBP, also known as cold-inducible RNA-binding protein, plays a protective role in the genotoxic stress response by stabilizing transcripts of genes involved in cell survival. CIRBP responds to a wide array of cellular stresses, including short wavelength ultraviolet light (UVC), at the transcriptional and post-translational level. It acts as a translational activator. CIRBP can bind the 3'untranslated region of specific transcripts to stabilize them and facilitate their transport to ribosomes for translation. CIRBP affects NF-kappaB signaling as opposed to IL1B mRNA stability directly.
