Description; Immunogen; Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human TARBP2; Physical form; Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.; Disclaimer; Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals.; Biochem/physiol Actions; HIV-1, the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), contains an RNA genome that produces a chromosomally integrated DNA during the replicative cycle. Activation of HIV-1 gene expression by the transactivator Tat is dependent on an RNA regulatory element (TAR) located downstream of the transcription initiation site. TARBP2 binds between the bulge and the loop of the HIV-1 TAR RNA regulatory element and activates HIV-1 gene expression in synergy with the viral Tat protein.; Sequence; Synthetic peptide located within the following region: ANPGKTPISLLQEYGTRIGKTPVYDLLKAEGQAHQPNFTFRVTVGDTSCT
