Background Information
EIF2C1, also named as AGO1, belongs to the argonaute family and Ago subfamily. EIF2C1 is required for RNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi). It binds to short RNAs such as microRNAs (miRNAs) or short interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and represses the translation of mRNAs which are complementary to them. Lacks endonuclease activity and does not appear to cleave target mRNAs. EIF2C1 may also be required for transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) of promoter regions which are complementary to bound short antigene RNAs (agRNAs). The antibody is specific to EIF2C1.

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer (Roy M.) rated this antibody 2 out of 5 stars after using it on HeLa cells at 1/1000 dilution for Western Blot. The main concern was lack of specificity: the antibody detected both Ago1 and Ago2, as confirmed by siRNA knockdown experiments. No other reviews are available for this product.
