NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a protein that homodimerizes and functions as a transcription factor which activates the expression of some key metabolic genes regulating cellular growth and nuclear genes required for respiration, heme biosynthesis, and mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication. The protein has also been associated with the regulation of neurite outgrowth. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Confusion has occurred in bibliographic databases due to the shared symbol of NRF1 for this gene and for "nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 1" which has an official symbol of NFE2L1.

Uniprot Description
NRF1: Transcription factor that activates the expression of the EIF2S1 (EIF2-alpha) gene. Links the transcriptional modulation of key metabolic genes to cellular growth and development. Implicated in the control of nuclear genes required for respiration, heme biosynthesis, and mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication. Belongs to the NRF1/Ewg family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: DNA-binding; Transcription factor

Product Notes
The Human NRF1 nrf1 (Catalog #AAA9502225) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA9502225 ELISA Kit recognizes Human NRF1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "NRF1, ELISA Kit" 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
