DDX6 (ATP-dependent RNA helicase p54, DEAD box protein 6, Oncogene RCK)

DDX6 (DEAD/H BOX 6), also known as HLR2 or p54, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DDX6 gene. DDX6 belongs to the DEAD box family of putative RNA helicases that contain a characteristic asp-glu-ala-asp (DEAD) box motif (Seto et al., 1995). Tunnacliffe et al. (1993) assigned the DDX6 gene more precisely using a panel of sequence tagged sites (STSs) representing 30 markers previously assigned to 11q23. Using mass spectroscopy, Fenger-Gron et al. (2005) found that RCK, EDC3 (YJDC), and HEDLS (RCD8) coimmunopurified with DCP1A and DCP2 from HEK293 cell lysates. Overexpression of DCP2, RCK, or EDC3 in HeLa cells reduced the association of endogenous DCP1A and XRN1 with cytoplasmic P bodies.\n\nUniProt Number:\nP26196\n\nGene ID:\nDDX6\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in Western Blot.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Handling:\nStore at -20?C for one year.
