Rabbit anti-Human HBS1L Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9Y450

Target Species

Human

Target Name

HBS1L

Target Full Name

HBS1-like protein

Target Function

Cotranslational quality control factor involved in the No-Go Decay (NGD) pathway. In the presence of ABCE1 and PELO, is required for 48S complex formation from 80S ribosomes and dissociation of vacant 80S ribosomes. Together with PELO and in presence of ABCE1, recognizes stalled ribosomes and promotes dissociation of elongation complexes assembled on non-stop mRNAs; this triggers endonucleolytic cleavage of the mRNA, a mechanism to release non-functional ribosomes and to degrade damaged mRNAs as part of the No-Go Decay (NGD) pathway.; Facilitates the association of the exosome complex with the SKI complex.

Target Subcellular Location

[Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm.

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the GTP-binding elongation factor family. It is expressed in multiple tissues with the highest expression in heart and skeletal muscle. The intergenic region of this gene and the MYB gene has been identified to be a quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling fetal hemoglobin level, and this region influnces erythrocyte, platelet, and monocyte counts as well as erythrocyte volume and hemoglobin content. DNA polymorphisms at this region associate with fetal hemoglobin levels and pain crises in sickle cell disease. A single nucleotide polymorphism in exon 1 of this gene is significantly associated with severity in beta-thalassemia/Hemoglobin E. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms have been found for this gene.
