Anti-HNF1B

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. HNF1 homeobox B (hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox B), also known as HNF1B or transcription factor 2 (TCF2), is a human gene. It is a member of the homeodomain-containing superfamily of transcription factors. This gene is mapped to 17q12. The HNF1B protein is believed to form heterodimers with another liver-specific member of this transcription factor family, TCF1. HNF1B functions as both a classic transcriptional activator and as a bookmarking factor that marks target genes for rapid transcriptional reactivation after mitosis. HNF1B also can regulate renal tubulogenesis by controlling expression of SOC3. Mutation of HNF1B that disrupts normal function has been identified as the cause of MODY5 (Maturity-Onset of Diabetes, Type 5). Protein function: Transcription factor, probably binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3'. [The UniProt Consortium]
