Anti-PATZ1 / POZ-, AT hook-, and zinc finger-containing protein 1

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. POZ-, AT hook-, and zinc finger-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PATZ1 gene. The protein encoded by this gene contains an A-T hook DNA binding motif which usually binds to other DNA binding structures to play an important role in chromatin modeling and transcription regulation. Its Poz domain is thought to function as a site for protein-protein interaction and is required for transcriptional repression, and the zinc-fingers comprise the DNA binding domain. Since the encoded protein has typical features of a transcription factor, it is postulated to be a repressor of gene expression. In small round cell sarcoma, this gene is fused to EWS by a small inversion of 22q, then the hybrid is thought to be translocated (t(1,22)(p36.1,q12). The rearrangement of chromosome 22 involves intron 8 of EWS and exon 1 of this gene creating a chimeric sequence containing the transactivation domain of EWS fused to zinc finger domain of this protein. This is a distinct example of an intra-chromosomal rearrangement of chromosome 22. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants are described for this gene. Protein function: Transcriptional regulator that plays a role in many biological processes such as embryogenesis, senescence, T-cell development or neurogenesis (PubMed:10713105, PubMed:25755280, PubMed:31875552). Interacts with the TP53 protein to control genes that are important in proliferation and in the DNA-damage response. Mechanistically, the interaction inhibits the DNA binding and transcriptional activity of TP53/p53 (PubMed:25755280). Part of the transcriptional network modulating regulatory T-cell development and controls the generation of the regulatory T-cell pool under homeostatic conditions (PubMed:31875552).
