Anti- α-Amanitin antibody, mAb

Background

α-Amanitin is the principal toxin of several deadly poisonous mushrooms, exerting its toxic function by

inhibiting RNA-polymerase II. α-Amanitin decreases TAF15 mRNA and TAF15 protein levels in MKN45 cells,

and inhibits the RNAPII activity towards TAF15 mRNA. α-Amanitin dramatically decreases the expression of gap

junctional genes (Gja1, Gja4 and Gjc1) and FSHr and LHr in cumulus cells.
