It has a molecular mass of approximately 42 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues including the liver lungs and heart. OAS1 is part of a family of interferon-induced enzymes that synthesize 2'-5'-linked oligoadenylates which are important for cellular defense mechanisms against viral infections.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe creation of 2'-5'-linked oligoadenylates by OAS1 is essential in activating RNase L an enzyme that degrades viral and cellular RNA to impede viral replication. OAS1 does not operate as part of a larger protein complex but functions independently to mediate antiviral activities. It has been observed that upon viral infection the levels of OAS1 increase enhancing the interferon response and cytokine signaling.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nOAS1 plays a significant role in the interferon signaling pathway and innate immune response pathways. Within these pathways OAS1 interacts with other proteins such as RNase L and is also associated with STAT1 a critical mediator of the cellular response to interferons. The function of OAS1 within these pathways highlights its importance in modulating immune responses to pathogens.\u003cbr\u003e\nOAS1 has been linked to conditions such as viral infections and autoimmune diseases. Its role in viral infections involves the detection and degradation of viral RNA thereby limiting viral proliferation. The interaction of OAS1 with RNase L is important in this process. In autoimmune disorders certain variants of OAS1 can alter immune function potentially contributing to abnormal immune responses and disease progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845079683241,"sku":"ab267107","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab267107","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
