DEAF1 is a transcription factor that regulates innate immune responses in Drosophila. It also modulates the expression of tissue antigens in pancreatic lymph nodes of type 1 diabetic mice. DEAF1 mutations have been linked to intellectual deformities, behavioral disorders and speech impairment. Rabbit Anti-DEAF1antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, chicken, and canineDEAF1.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human DEAF1
Application
Rabbit Anti-DEAF1 is suitable for western blot applications at a concentration of 0.5 μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
DEAF1 down-regulates transcription of those genes by binding to sequence with multiple copies of TTC[CG]G present in their own promoter and that of the HNRPA2B1 gene. DEAF1 binds to the retinoic acid response element (RARE) AGGGTTCACCGAAAGTTCA. DEAF1 activates the proenkephalin gene independently of promoter binding, probably through protein-protein interaction. When secreted, behaves as an inhibitor of cell proliferation, by arresting cells in the G0 or G1 phase.

Recently, we identified in two individuals with intellectual disability (ID) different de novo mutations in DEAF1, which encodes a transcription factor with an important role in embryonic development. To ascertain whether these mutations in DEAF1 are causative for the ID
Type 1 diabetes may result from a breakdown in peripheral tolerance that is partially controlled by the expression of peripheral tissue antigens (PTAs) in lymph nodes. Here we show that the transcriptional regulator Deaf1 controls the expression of genes encoding

Innate immune signalling pathways are evolutionarily conserved between invertebrates and vertebrates. The analysis of NF-kappaB signalling in Drosophila has contributed important insights into how organisms respond to infection. Nevertheless, significant gaps remain in our understanding of how the activation of
