Anti-RUNX1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Cy5.5®)
Supplier: Bioss
AML1/Runx1 binds DNA as a monomer and through the Runt domain. DNA binding is increased by heterodimerization with CBFB. Isoform AML1L can neither bind DNA nor heterodimerize and interferes with the transactivation activity of AML1/Runx1. CBF binds to the core site, 5'-PYGPYGGT-3', of a number of enhancers and promoters, including murine leukemia virus, polyomavirus enhancer, T cell receptor enhancers, LCK, IL3 and GMCSF promoters. The alpha subunit binds DNA and appears to have a role in the development of normal hematopoiesis. AML1/Runx1 is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and is expressed at the highest levels in thymus, bone marrow and peripheral blood. Defects in AML1/Runx1 are the cause of familial platelet disorder with associated myeloid malignancy, an autosomal dominant disease characterized by qualitative and quantitative platelet defects, and propensity to develop acute myelogenous leukemia.

Human recombinant myelin P0-like 1 (from cells)
Supplier: ProSci Inc.
Myelin protein zero-like protein 1(MPZL1) is encoded by the MPZL1 gene, which is a single-pass type I membrane protein. It is widely expressed with highest levels in heart, placenta, kidney and pancreas. As cell surface receptor, it involved in signal transduction processes. MPZL1 recruits PTPN11/SHP-2 to the cell membrane and subsequently activate/phosphorylate Src kinase at Tyr426, promoting phosphorylation of cortactin and migration of HCC cells. MPZL1also is a major receptor for concanavalin-A (ConA) and involved in cellular signalling induced by ConA, which probably includes Src family tyrosine-protein kinases.

Anti-HIAT1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Alexa Fluor® 350)
Supplier: Bioss
The Major facilitator superfamily consists of presumed carbohydrate transporters with 10-12 membrane-spanning domains. Belonging to the facilitator superfamily, HIAT1 is a 490 amino acid multi-pass membrane protein that may function as a sugar transporter and is expressed in adult and embryonic brain. The HIAT1 gene was first observed while analyzing for active genes in neonatal mouse hippocampus. The gene encoding HIAT1 maps to human chromosome 1, the largest human chromosome spanning about 260 million base pairs and making up 8% of the human genome. There are about 3,000 genes on chromosome 1, and considering the great number of genes there are also a large number of diseases associated with chromosome 1. Notably, the rare aging disease Hutchinson-Gilford progeria is associated with the LMNA gene which encodes lamin A. Stickler syndrome, Parkinsons, schizophrenia, familial adenomatous polyposis, Gaucher disease and Usher syndrome are also associated with chromosome 1.

Anti-RUNX1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody
Supplier: ProSci Inc.
RUNX1 Antibody: RUNX1 is one of three mammalian RUNX genes that control multiple aspects of embryonic development and are responsible for the pathogenesis of many human diseases. RUNX1 plays major roles in the development of nociceptive sensory neurons in addition to hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) with the exception of the erythroid lineage. During development, Notch signals mediate RUNX1 induction with SCL/GATA/Ets factors, and Wnt signals potentially cooperate with RUNX1 to facilitate adult HSC expansion via cooperative induction of cyclin D, cdk4, and other cell cycle regulators. In turn, RUNX1 regulates cell cycle transitions dependent on functional/physical interactions with other proteins such as HDAC1 and -3, mSin3A, p300, SMAD proteins, and LEF/TCF.

Anti-TEFM Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody (Cy5®)
Supplier: Bioss
C17orf42 is a 360 amino acid protein that exists as two alternatively spliced isoforms and is encoded by a gene mapping to human chromosome 17. Chromosome 17 makes up over 2.5% of the human genome with about 81 million bases encoding over 1,200 genes. Two key tumor suppressor genes are associated with chromosome 17, namely, p53 and BRCA1. Tumor suppressor p53 is necessary for maintenance of cellular genetic integrity by moderating cell fate through DNA repair versus cell death. Malfunction or loss of p53 expression is associated with malignant cell growth and Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Like p53, BRCA1 is directly involved in DNA repair, specifically it is recognized as a genetic determinant of early onset breast cancer and predisposition to cancers of the ovary, colon, prostate gland and fallopian tubes. Chromosome 17 is also linked to neurofibromatosis, a condition characterized by neural and epidermal lesions, and dysregulated Schwann cell growth. Alexander disease, Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and Canavan disease are also associated with chromosome 17.
