SAM68 Antibody / KHDRBS1 Polyclonal Antibody targets Src-associated in mitosis 68 kDa protein (SAM68), an RNA-binding protein encoded by the KHDRBS1 gene. SAM68 belongs to the STAR (signal transduction and activation of RNA) family of proteins, which integrate extracellular signaling pathways with the regulation of RNA metabolism. Through its interactions with RNA and signaling proteins, SAM68 participates in alternative splicing, transcript processing, cell-cycle regulation, and cellular differentiation.
SAM68 contains a conserved GSG domain that includes a K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain and regions involved in protein interactions. The KH domain recognizes selected RNA sequences, allowing SAM68 to influence the processing of specific transcripts. Additional proline-rich regions mediate interactions with signaling proteins containing SH3 domains, while tyrosine residues provide regulatory sites for phosphorylation. These structural features connect RNA-binding activity with changes in cellular signaling.
One of the principal functions of SAM68 is the regulation of alternative pre-mRNA splicing. By interacting with selected RNA sequences and components of the splicing machinery, SAM68 influences exon inclusion or exclusion in transcripts associated with cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation. Its activity can be modified by phosphorylation, methylation, and other post-translational modifications. These regulatory mechanisms influence RNA binding, protein interactions, and subcellular distribution, allowing SAM68 to respond to changing cellular conditions.
SAM68 was originally characterized through its association with Src-family tyrosine kinases during mitosis. Subsequent research established its broader role in linking signal transduction to RNA processing. SAM68 participates in pathways involving cellular proliferation, apoptosis, and responses to extracellular signals. Its functions also extend to neuronal development and RNA regulation in differentiated tissues, where coordinated alternative splicing contributes to specialized cellular activities.
Altered SAM68 expression and activity have been investigated in several cancers, including breast, prostate, and colorectal malignancies. Depending on the cellular context, SAM68 can influence the processing of transcripts involved in tumor-associated signaling and cell survival. Its biological effects depend on the availability of interacting proteins, phosphorylation status, and the transcripts expressed within individual cells.
SAM68 Antibody supports research into the relationship between RNA-binding proteins and cellular signaling pathways. Characterizing KHDRBS1 expression and regulation contributes to understanding alternative splicing, RNA processing, and the mechanisms through which signaling events influence gene expression.

Optimal dilution of the SAM68 Antibody / KHDRBS1 Polyclonal Antibodyy should be determined by the researcher.
E. coli-derived recombinant human protein (amino acids M21-E239) was used as the immunogen for the SAM68 antibody.
After reconstitution, the SAM68 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
