This Nucleolin antibody was produced from mice immunized with a protein from human NCL.
Nucleolin is the major nucleolar protein of growing eukaryotic cells. It is found associated with intranucleolar chromatin and pre-ribosomal particles. It induces chromatin decondensation by binding to histone H1. It is thought to play a role in pre-rRNA transcription and ribosome assembly. May play a role in the process of transcriptional elongation. Binds RNA oligonucleotides with 5-UUAGGG-3 repeats more tightly than the telomeric single-stranded DNA 5-TTAGGG-3 repeats. [UniProt]
