Western Blot (WB)
(ATF-2 pAb tested by Western blot. ATF-2 detection by Western blot. The analysis was performed using 293 nuclear extract and ATF-2 pAb at a 2 ug/ml dilution.)
Rabbit anti-Human ATF-2 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-ATF-2 antibody
ATF-2 antibody (pAb)
WB: 1-2ug/ml dilution
For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all blocking solutions may also reduce background.

Background: ATF-2 (activating transcription factor 2) transcription factor is a member of the leucine-zipper family of proteins and was previously known as cAMP responsive element binding protein 2 (or CREB2). ATF 2 is a transcriptional activator that binds the cAMP-responsive element (CRE) and interacts with c-Jun to stimulate CRE transcription. This protein is also capable of acetylating Histone H2B and Histone H4 in vitro as a histone acetyltransferase (HAT).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a transcription factor that is a member of the leucine zipper family of DNA binding proteins. The encoded protein has been identified as a moonlighting protein based on its ability to perform mechanistically distinct functions This protein binds to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE), an octameric palindrome. It forms a homodimer or a heterodimer with c-Jun and stimulates CRE-dependent transcription. This protein is also a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that specifically acetylates histones H2B and H4 in vitro; thus it may represent a class of sequence-specific factors that activate transcription by direct effects on chromatin components. The encoded protein may also be involved in cell's DNA damage response independent of its role in transcriptional regulation. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
Uniprot Description
ATF-2: a transcription factor that is a member of the leucine zipper family. Binds to the cAMP-responsive element (CRE). Forms a homodimer or heterodimer with c-Jun and stimulates CRE-dependent transcription. Also possesses histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity that specifically acetylates histones H2B and H4 in vitro.

Product Notes
The ATF-2 atf2 (Catalog #AAA388711) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The ATF-2 antibody (pAb) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's ATF-2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Applications Validated: WB: 1-2ug/ml dilution For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all blocking solutions may also reduce background. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the ATF-2 atf2 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 "ATF-2, Polyclonal 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
