Anti-MZF1 / Myeloid zinc finger 1, clone PCRP-MZF1-1E8

1 mg/ml in 1X PBS, BSA free, sodium azide free. Zinc finger genes that encode metal-binding proteins are transcriptional regulators of other genes. Myeloid zinc finger 1 (MZF-1), also designated zinc finger protein 42, and transcription factor ZBP-89, also designated zinc finger protein 148, belong to the Kruppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. The gene encoding for the MZF-1 protein maps to chromosome 19q13.43 while the gene encoding for ZBP-89 is localized on chromosome 3q21. These proteins are nuclear proteins involved in the regulation of transcriptional events. MZF-1 regulates transcription during hemopoietic development and plays a role in myeloid cell differentiation. MZF-1 regulates the CD34 promoter in a tissue-specific manner. MZF-1 and FHL3 can form a complex of high molecular mass with other proteins in the nucleus. It is induced by retinoic acid and is primarily expressed in differentiating myeloid cells. Protein function: Binds to target promoter DNA and functions as a transcription regulator. Regulates transcription from the PADI1 and CDH2 promoter. May be one regulator of transcriptional events during hemopoietic development. [The UniProt Consortium]
