NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is induced by cytokines and interferon. Its protein product is thought to be involved in negative regulation of growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, which contributes to the anti-inflammatory response to vessel wall trauma. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
Uniprot Description
AIF1: Actin-binding protein that enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T- lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
Protein type: Cytoskeletal
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p21.3
Cellular Component: perinuclear region of cytoplasm; lamellipodium; cytoplasm; actin filament; perikaryon; cytosol; nucleus; phagocytic cup
Molecular Function: actin filament binding; calcium ion binding
Biological Process: actin filament bundle formation; positive regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process; negative regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; Rac protein signal transduction; microglial cell activation; cellular response to hormone stimulus; actin filament polymerization; positive regulation of muscle hyperplasia; cellular response to extracellular stimulus; positive regulation of T cell proliferation; positive regulation of protein amino acid phosphorylation; response to axon injury; response to electrical stimulus; phagocytosis, engulfment; inflammatory response; negative regulation of apoptosis

Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Dilution: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 1:50. Antigen retrieval is recommended using a combination of microwave and a sodium citrate solution. Western Blot: 1:50. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AIF1 aif1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Allograft Inflammatory Factor-1, Monoclonal Antibody" 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
