Catalog No. ABIN361975

This Rabbit Polyclonal antibody specifically detects ATF4 in IHC. It exhibits reactivity toward Human.

Quick Overview for ATF4 antibody (pSer245) (ABIN361975)

Target: ATF4 (Activating Transcription Factor 4 (Tax-Responsive Enhancer Element B67) (ATF4))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This ATF4 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Product Details anti-ATF4 Antibody

Binding Specificity: pSer245

Specificity: The antibody detects endogenous level of ATF4 only when phosphorylated at serine 245.

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatogramphy using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.

Immunogen: Peptide sequence around phosphorylation site of pSer245 (N-R-S (p) -L-P) derived from Human ATF4. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic phosphopeptide and KLH conjugates.

Isotype: IgG

Target Details for ATF4

Target: ATF4 (Activating Transcription Factor 4 (Tax-Responsive Enhancer Element B67) (ATF4))

Alternative Name: ATF4

Background: ATF4 encodes a transcription factor that was originally identified as a widely expressed mammalian DNA binding protein that could bind a tax-responsive enhancer element in the LTR of HTLV-1. The encoded protein was also isolated and characterized as the cAMP-response element binding protein 2 (CREB-2). The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of DNA-binding proteins that includes the AP-1 family of transcription factors, cAMP-response element binding proteins (CREBs) and CREB-like proteins. These transcription factors share a leucine zipper region that is involved in protein-protein interactions, located C-terminal to a stretch of basic amino acids that functions as a DNA binding domain. Two alternative transcripts encoding the same protein have been described. Two pseudogenes are located on the X chromsome at q28 in a region containing a large inverted duplication.
