Related Product Information for anti-ATOH1 antibody

The Drosophila atonal gene produces a protein with basic helix loop helix (bHLH) domains that plays an essential role in the development of the Drosophila nervous system. Mammalian atonal homolog 1 (MATH-1) is a helix-loop-helix (HLH) transcription factor that is structurally homologous to the product of the Drosophila proneural gene atonal. MATH-1, so known as Atoh1, Ath1 or HATH-1, is a 351 amino acid protein with an atonal-related basic HLH domain. In mice, expression of MATH-1 takes place by embryonic day 9.5 and initially localizes to the cranial ganglions and the dorsal part of the central nervous system. Prominent expression of MATH-1 is in the dorsal part of the central nervous system but becomes restricted to the external granular layer of the cerebellum by day 18 and is undetectable in the adult nervous system. It is suggested that MATH-1 may play a role in the differentiation of subsets of neural cells by activating E box-dependent transcription.

Uniprot Description

ATOH1: a conserved transcription factor that regulates secretory cell differentiation in colonic epithelium. Activates E box-dependent transcription in collaboration with TCF3/E47, but the activity is completely antagonized by the negative regulator of neurogenesis HES1. May play a role in the differentiation of subsets of neural cells by activating E box- dependent transcription . Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Loss of ATOH1 expression in the colon of mice initiates colon cancer. ATOH1 has been silenced in most human colon cancers, and reactivation of this gene in cultured human colon cancer cells is anti-proliferative and induces apoptosis.
