Background Information
MTIF3, also named as DC38, belongs to the IF-3 family. MTIF3 encodes a 29 kDa protein that promotes formation of the initiation complex on the mitochondrial 55S ribosome, thereby playing an active role in initiation of translation. Like bacterial IF3, MTIF3 is believed to bind first to the small mitoribosomal subunit to keep it dissociated from the large subunit during initiation. After binding of MTIF3, mRNA and formylated initiator methionyl-tRNA (fMet-tRNAifMet) bind to the small mitoribosomal subunit. The large subunit then joins the small subunit to form an elongation-competent ribosome (PMID:20887776, 31350787).

Reviews
What customers say
One reviewer (Mi Huang, Feb 2023) rated this antibody 4/5 stars after using it at 1:1000 dilution for Western Blot on adipocytes. They reported it produced a specific band consistent with expectations from knockout samples, outperforming alternatives from other suppliers. However, they noted some non-specific bands were observed and recommended using a knockout control to validate the target band.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Mi (Verified Customer) (02-10-2023) | It works pretty well! We tried different antibodies from other suppliers, and this one gives a specific band, as we expected from the knockout samples. Although, we did observe some non-specific bands, having a knockout control would validate the target band.
