Description

General description

The AP2 family of transcription factors is expressed during mammalian development, morphogenesis and in various malignancies. Transcription factor AP-2 gamma (activating enhancer binding protein 2 gamma) (TFAP2G, AP2gamma, ERF1, TFAP2G, AP2-gamma) is a retinoic acid-responsive gene involved in placental development and the progression of human breast cancer. AP2-gamma is required for development and maintenance of extra-embryonic membranes, trophectoderm.

Specificity

Anti-TFAP2C polyclonal antibody reacts with human, mouse, rat, bovine, canine, zebrafish, pig, and chicken transcription factor AP-2 gamma proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human TFAP2C

Application

Anti-TFAP2C polyclonal antibody is used to tag transcription factor AP-2 gamma for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of transcription factor AP-2 gamma in extra-embryonic membrane development during embryo gestation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TFAP2C is a sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factor involved in the activation of several developmental genes. The protein can act as either a homodimer or heterodimer with other family members and is induced during retinoic acid-mediated differentiation. It plays a role in the development of the eyes, face, body wall, limbs, and neural tube.The protein encoded by this gene is a sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factor involved in the activation of several developmental genes.
