Rabbit Sp1 Polyclonal Antibody | anti-Sp1 antibody
Sp1 antibody (pAb)
ChIP: 5-10ul per ChIP
WB: 1:500-1:1,000 dilution
For optimal results in Western blotting, primary antibody incubations should be performed at 37 degree C.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
(Sp1 antibody tested by ChIP. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed using the ChIP-IT High Sensitivity Kit with 20 ug of chromatin from B cell lymphoma Namalwa cells and 6 ul of Sp1 antibody. ChIP DNA was used in qPCR with the control primer pairs or gene-specific primer pairs as indicated. Data are presented as Binding Events Detected per 1000 Cells using Epigenetic Services normalization scheme which accounts for primer efficiency and the amount of chromatin used in the ChIP reaction.)
Western Blot (WB)
(Sp1 antibody tested by Western blot. Detection of Sp1 by Western blot analysis. Sp1 was detected in nuclear extracts derived from K-562 cells using Sp1 rabbit polyclonal antibody at a 1:1,000 dilution.)
Background: Sp1 (specificity protein 1) is a human transcription factor involved in gene expression in the early development of an organism. The protein is 785 amino acids long, with a molecular weight of 81 kDa. The SP1 transcription factor contains a zinc finger protein motif, by which it binds directly to DNA and enhances gene transcription. Its zinc fingers are of the Cys2/His2 type and bind the consensus sequence 5'-(G/T)GGGCGG(G/A)(G/A)(C/T)-3' (GC box element). It was discovered in 1983 and has since been modified to form Sp1C, which has a zinc finger protein DNA binding domain.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc finger transcription factor that binds to GC-rich motifs of many promoters. The encoded protein is involved in many cellular processes, including cell differentiation, cell growth, apoptosis, immune responses, response to DNA damage, and chromatin remodeling. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, and proteolytic processing significantly affect the activity of this protein, which can be an activator or a repressor. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]
Uniprot Description
SP1: a transcription factor of the Sp1 C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family. Phosphorylated and activated by MAPK. Dephosphorylation by PTEN inhibits DNA binding. Binds to p38 in the nucleus. Interacts with Huntingtin and TAFII130. Transcriptional activity of SP1 and TAFII130 disrupted in early Huntingtin's Disease.

Product Notes
The Sp1 sp1 (Catalog #AAA388344) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Sp1 antibody (pAb) reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Sp1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-Seq (ChIP-Seq), Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB). Applications Validated: ChIP: 5-10ul per ChIP WB: 1:500-1:1,000 dilution For optimal results in Western blotting, primary antibody incubations should be performed at 37 degree C. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Sp1 sp1 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 "Sp1, 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
