Target: NFATC1 (Nuclear Factor of Activated T-Cells, Cytoplasmic, Calcineurin-Dependent 1 (NFATC1))

Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This NFATC1 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunoprecipitation (IP)

Clone: 7A6

Product Details anti-NFATC1 Antibody

Brand: BD Pharmingen™

Cross-Reactivity: Mouse (Murine)

Characteristics: 1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
2. Please refer to us for technical protocols.
3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

Purification: The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography.

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: 7A6 may be used for western blot analysis of NF-ATc1 (1-2 µg/ml). Note that while the predicted M W of NF-ATc is ~100 kDa, the observed M W may range between 100 to 120 kDa due to post-translational modification of NF-ATc. Other applications include immunoprecipitation (2 µg/ml), mobility shift assays (EMSA) and immunofluorescence microscopy of paraformaldehyde-fixed, tissue cultured cells. Jurkat human T cells (ATCC TIB-152) are suggested as a positive control for expression of NF-ATc.

Target Details for NFATC1

Target: NFATC1 (Nuclear Factor of Activated T-Cells, Cytoplasmic, Calcineurin-Dependent 1 (NFATC1))

Alternative Name: NF-ATc1

Background: The NF-AT family of transcription factors are regulators of early immune response genes in T cells following their activation by CD40L, FasL and nterleukins including IL-2, -3, -4 and -5. NF-AT proteins function in both signal transduction and transcription control. The DNA binding, active NF-AT complex contains a cytoplasmic, Ca2+/calcineurin dependent, cyclosporin sensitive subunit, designated NF-ATc, which is present in the cytoplasm of resting cells. Upon cell activation, NF-ATc is dephosphorylated and thus activated by calcineurin, resulting in rapid translocation of NF-ATc to the nucleus. The active NF-AT complex also contains a nuclear component, NF-ATn. In vitro, NF-AT cooperates with the mitogenic transcription factor AP-1 to induce multiple cytokine genes. NF-ATc is encoded by four genes: NF-ATc1 (originally named NF-ATc), NF-ATc2 (originally named NF-ATp), NF-ATc3 (NF-AT3) and NF- ATc4 (NF-AT4). These proteins are differentially expressed in tissues, suggesting that each may activate distinct sets of genes. NF-ATc1 is expressed in lymphoid organs and is upregulated in activated T cell and thymocytes. NF-ATc1 is required for the development of T cells and has been shown to contribute to the production of IL-2 and the development of Th2 responses. 7A6 recognizes human and mouse NF-ATc1. The antibody recognizes a region between amino acids 197 to 304 of human NF-ATc1, which lies outside the region of homology between NF-ATc1 and NF-ATc2.3 Please note that in the original publication for the antibody (Northrop et al. 1994), the clone name 7A6 is not specifically identified.
