The At5g62510 gene encodes an F-box protein, a component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box) ubiquitin ligase complex. These complexes mediate substrate-specific protein degradation, a critical regulatory mechanism in plant development and stress responses . Key roles include:
Substrate Recognition: F-box proteins bind specific substrates for ubiquitination.
Stress Signaling: Linked to pathways activated under environmental stressors.
Developmental Regulation: Influences cell cycle progression and hormone signaling.
No direct functional studies of the At5g62510 gene product were identified in the provided sources, highlighting a gap in published research .
While validation data (e.g., immunoblot images, specificity tests) are not explicitly provided in the sources, commercial antibodies like CSB-PA884263XA01DOA are typically validated for:
Specificity: Immunogen-derived affinity confirmed via knockout/knockdown controls.
Titer: Concentration optimized for common assays.
Cross-Reactivity: Assumed specificity for Arabidopsis thaliana unless stated otherwise.
For experimental reliability, users are advised to validate the antibody in their specific model system .
