TFEC Immunizing Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the micropthalmia (MiT) family of basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factors. MiT transcription factors regulate the expression of target genes by binding to E-box recognition sequences as homo- or heterodimers, and play roles in multiple cellular processes including survival, growth and differentiation. The encoded protein is a transcriptional activator of the nonmuscle myosin II heavy chain-A gene, and may also co-regulate target genes in osteoclasts as a heterodimer with micropthalmia-associated transcription factor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
Uniprot Description
TFEC: Transcriptional regulator that acts as a repressor or an activator. Acts as a transcriptional repressor on minimal promoter containing element F (that includes an E-box sequence). Binds to element F in an E-box sequence-specific manner. Acts as a transcriptional transactivator on the proximal promoter region of the tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) E-box containing promoter. Collaborates with MITF in target gene activation. Acts as a transcriptional repressor on minimal promoter containing mu E3 enhancer sequence. Binds to mu E3 DNA sequence of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene enhancer. Binds DNA in a homo- or heterodimeric form. Belongs to the MiT/TFE family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The TFEC tfec (Catalog #AAA425377) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The TFEC Immunizing Peptide reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: TLDHQIINPT LK-C. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "TFEC, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
