Description: Retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) is a 925 amino acid, interferon-inducible cellular DExD/H box RNA helicase that activates type I interferon (IFN), an important effector of the innate immune system that is sensitive to these dsRNA viruses. dsRNA is normally present in very low quantities in cells, so when a virus is present, the elevated levels of dsRNA act as a sign telling RIG-I to activate the production of IFN.

Immunogen: A synthetic peptide specific to human RIG-I was used as the immunogen for the RIG-I antibody.

Storage: Store the RIG-I antibody at -20 °C.
