Target data

Function

Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) endoribonuclease playing a central role in short dsRNA-mediated post-transcriptional gene silencing. Cleaves naturally occurring long dsRNAs and short hairpin pre-microRNAs (miRNA) into fragments of twenty-one to twenty-three nucleotides with 3' overhang of two nucleotides, producing respectively short interfering RNAs (siRNA) and mature microRNAs. SiRNAs and miRNAs serve as guide to direct the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) to complementary RNAs to degrade them or prevent their translation. Gene silencing mediated by siRNAs, also called RNA interference, controls the elimination of transcripts from mobile and repetitive DNA elements of the genome but also the degradation of exogenous RNA of viral origin for instance. The miRNA pathway on the other side is a mean to specifically regulate the expression of target genes.

Notes

To our knowledge the localization of Dicer remains to be fully determined and it appears that its localization can be nuclear and/or cytoplasmic. Please see reference Meltzer, 2005 for a reference to a cytoplasmic localisation (figure 1 of paper), as supported with the staining seen in the image on this datasheet.
Please note this antibody gave negative results in WB with mouse fibroblast cell line lysates. We do not guarantee its use in WB with mouse lysates.

    Flow Cytometry - Anti-Dicer antibody [13D6] - ChIP Grade (ab14601)

    Overlay histogram showing HEK293 cells stained with ab14601 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab14601, 0.1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2a [ICIGG2A] (Mouse IgG2a, Kappa Monoclonal [B12/8] - Isotype Control ab91361, 0.1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

    ChIP - Anti-Dicer antibody [13D6] - ChIP Grade (ab14601)

    ChIP analysis of Dicer protein binding at chicken ß-globin regulatory elements. Chromatin from human erythroleukemia (K562) cells containing chicken chromosomes with normal (FRK2) or mutant (HS1-K) ß-globin loci and chicken DT40 cells was immunprecipitated with antibodies to Dicer (ab14601). PCR analysis of immunoprecipitated chromatin was carried out using primers to the chicken ß-globin regulatory elements. Mouse IgG served as control. 10% of input DNA was utilized.

    Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 cell lysate (20 μg)
    Lane 2: Dicer knockout HAP1 cell lysate (20 μg)

    Lanes 1 and 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab14601 observed at 240 kDa. Red - loading control, Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891] - Loading Control ab181602, observed at 37 kDa.


    ab14601 was shown to specifically react with Dicer in wild-type HAP1 cells. No band was observed when Dicer knockout samples were used. Wild-type and Dicer knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab14601 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891] - Loading Control ab181602 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted 1/1000 and 1/2000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216772) and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216777) secondary antibodies at 1/10,000 dilution for 1hr at room temperature before imaging.

    Western blot - Anti-Dicer antibody [13D6] - ChIP Grade (ab14601)

    This blot was produced using a 3-8% Tris Acetate gel under the TA buffer system. The gel was run at 150V for 60 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour before being incubated with ab14601 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using IR-labelled goat anti-mouse Ab at a 1:10,000 dilution for 1hr at room temperature and then imaged using the Licor Odyssey CLx.
