Background:

Pre-mRNA splicing is a critical step in the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein Q (hnRNP Q) is involved in RNA processing and is necessary for efficient pre-mRNA splicing. hnRNP is widely expressed and developmentally regulated. hnRNP Q interacts with survival motor neuron protein (SMN). Loss of function of SMN results in spinal muscular atrophy, a common neurodegenerative disease. The most common deletion in SMN genes disrupts the interaction between SMN and hnRNP Q. hnRNP Q is upregulated after midnight, and this upregulation correlates with an abrupt decline in AANAT, the key enzyme in melatonin synthesis. Rhythmic AANAT mRNA degradation mediated in part by hnRNP Q implicates this enzyme in the regulation of circadian oscillation.

Specificity:

hnRNP Q (E268) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of hnRNP Q protein.
