Anti-NF1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total NF1 protein.
NF1 (neurofibromin 1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 17q11.2. The protein encoded contains more than 2800 amino acids.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human NF1.
Immunogen Range: 1551-1600
Biochem/physiol Actions
NF1 (neurofibromin 1) is a tumor suppressor gene and negatively regulates RAS (proto-oncogene, GTPase). Mutation in NF1 is strongly associated with the pathogenesis of melanoma and also causes neurofibromatosis type 1. Loss of NF1 allele results in benign neurofibromas in nonmyelinating Schwann cell and is associated with desmoplastic melanoma.

In general, melanoma can be considered as a UV-driven disease with an aggressive metastatic course and high mutational load, with only few tumors (acral, mucosal, and uveal melanomas) not induced by sunlight and possessing a lower mutational load. The most
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) are aggressive, frequently metastatic sarcomas that are associated with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a prominent inherited genetic disease in humans. Although loss of the NF1 gene predisposes to MPNST induction, relatively long tumor latency
