Additional Product Information
DiGeorge syndrome critical region 8 (DGCR8) is a component of the microprocessor complex that acts as a RNA- and heme-binding protein and is involved in the initial step of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. DGCR8 functions as a molecular anchor necessary for the recognition of pri-miRNA at dsRNA-ssRNA junctions. It directs RNASEN/DROSHA to cleave 11 bp away from the junction to release hairpin-shaped pre-miRNAs that are subsequently cut by the cytoplasmic DICER to generate mature miRNAs [taken from the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q8WYQ5].

Applications
All western blot analysis is performed using 5% Milk-TBST for blocking and as antibody diluent. Primary antibody is incubated overnight.
Western blots of cell lysates are performed using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG Heavy and Light Chain Antibody (Cat. No. A120-101P).
Western blots of immunoprecipitates are performed using Goat anti-Rabbit Light Chain HRP Conjugate (Cat. No. A120-113P) with 5% Normal Pig Serum (Cat. No. S100-020) added to the blocking buffer.
