Beschreibung

General description

Cyclic AMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-6 alpha (UniProt: P18850; also known as cAMP-dependent transcription factor ATF-6 alpha, Activating transcription factor 6 alpha, ATF6-alpha) is encoded by the ATF6 gene (Gene ID: 22926) in human. ATF6 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized protein that is involved in transducing signals linked to ER stress. It is responsible for the correct folding, secretion, and membrane insertion of a vast majority of proteins in eukaryotic cells. Two homologous ATF6 proteins, ATF6α and ATF6β, are expressed in mammalian cells. Their C-terminal region protrudes into the ER lumen, whereas the N-terminal faces the cytosol. Although ATF6α and ATF6β display significant sequence homology, they exhibit divergent transcriptional activation domains.  ATF6α is a single-pass type II membrane protein with a cytoplasmic domain (aa 1-377), a transmembrane domain (aa 378-398), and a lumenal domain (aa 399-670). It is a homodimeric protein that can form heterodimer with ATF6β. This dimer interacts with the nuclear transcription factor Y (NF-Y) trimer through direct binding to NF-Y subunit C (NF-YC). ATF6α is a potent transcriptional activator whereas ATF6β is a poor transcriptional activator, and may even inhibit activation by ATF6α. ER stress is known to promote its processing that releases N-terminal transcription factor form that translocates into the nucleus, where it activates transcription of genes involved in unfolded protein response (UPR). Mutations in ATF6 gene are known to cause Achromatopsia 7 (ACHM7), an ocular stationary disorder due to the absence of functioning cone photoreceptors in the retina. It is characterized by total colorblindness, low visual acuity, photophobia, and nystagmus. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Clone 1F11 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects ATF6 . It targets an epitope within 25 amino acids from the N-terminal half.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

Preparation Note

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.

Reconstitute lyophilized antibody pellet with 25μL of ultrapure water or Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Please refer to our reconstitution protocol and the specific application guidance on the suggested starting dilutions and sample type.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
