Rabbit anti-Human SPI1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P17947

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SPI1

Target Full Name

Transcription factor PU.1

Target Function

Binds to the PU-box, a purine-rich DNA sequence (5'-GAGGAA-3') that can act as a lymphoid-specific enhancer. This protein is a transcriptional activator that may be specifically involved in the differentiation or activation of macrophages or B-cells. Also binds RNA and may modulate pre-mRNA splicing.

Target Subcellular Location

Nucleus.

Target Protein Families

ETS family

Target Background

This gene encodes an ETS-domain transcription factor that activates gene expression during myeloid and B-lymphoid cell development. The nuclear protein binds to a purine-rich sequence known as the PU-box found near the promoters of target genes, and regulates their expression in coordination with other transcription factors and cofactors. The protein can also regulate alternative splicing of target genes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
