NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family, and can function as a cellular transcription factor. The encoded protein can activate transcription through pyrimidine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs. This gene has been linked to familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL). Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
Uniprot Description
USF1: Transcription factor that binds to a symmetrical DNA sequence (E-boxes) (5'-CACGTG-3') that is found in a variety of viral and cellular promoters. Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as an homodimer or a heterodimer (USF1/USF2). Interacts with varicella-zoster virus IE62 protein.
Protein type: Transcription factor; DNA-binding
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q22-q23
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; transcription factor complex; nucleus
Molecular Function: RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity, enhancer binding; protein binding; enzyme binding; protein homodimerization activity; protein heterodimerization activity; sequence-specific DNA binding; histone deacetylase binding; double-stranded DNA binding; bHLH transcription factor binding; protein kinase binding
Biological Process: transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; lipid homeostasis; glucose metabolic process; late viral mRNA transcription; glucose homeostasis; regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; negative regulation of fibrinolysis; cellular response to insulin stimulus; response to hypoxia; regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter by glucose; regulation of transcription by carbon catabolites; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter by glucose; response to UV
Disease: Hyperlipidemia, Combined, 1

Product Notes
The USF1 usf1 (Catalog #AAA611538) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Upstream Transcription Factor-1 (USF1) reacts with Human, Rodent and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Upstream Transcription Factor-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EL/EIA), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Suitable for use in ELISA and Immunohistochemistry. Dilution: ELISA (serum titer): 1:137,500. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the USF1 usf1 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 "Upstream Transcription Factor-1, 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
