REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

Pumilio 1 also known as PUM1 is a human protein coding for RNA-binding protein involved in the translational regulation of mRNA. It has a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. PUM1 expresses in various tissues with higher concentrations in brain placenta and testis. This protein contains a distinct Pumilio Homology Domain which allows it to specifically recognize and bind to a conserved sequence motif known as Pumilio Response Element (PRE) in target mRNAs.
Biological function summary
PUM1 is an important regulator of gene expression. It functions by binding to the 3' untranslated regions of target mRNAs leading to repression of translation and in some cases RNA decay. PUM1 operates within larger ribonucleoprotein complexes collaborating with other regulatory proteins to fine-tune the stability and translation of specific transcripts. This regulation is vital for processes like neuronal development stem cell maintenance and germ cell development.
Pathways
The influence of PUM1 extends to key biological networks such as the cell cycle and long-term potentiation pathways. It interacts with proteins like DDX6 which synergize to mediate post-transcriptional regulation as part of the mRNA decay pathway. Through its role in these pathways PUM1 helps ensure precise control of gene expression necessary for cellular homeostasis and adaptive responses to environmental changes.
The dysfunction of PUM1 is linked to neurological and reproductive conditions. Mutations or alterations in PUM1 expression have associations with spinocerebellar ataxia and gonadal dysgenesis. In these contexts PUM1 aberrations may also involve interactions with proteins such as FMRP known for its roles in neurological development and reproductive processes pointing to a complex network of genetic regulation and disease manifestation.
