NRF1 (also known as nuclearrespiratory factor 1, alpha palindromic binding protein andalpha-pal) is the mammalian homolog to the erect wing(ewg) Drosophila protein that is required for properdevelopment of the central nervous system and indirectflight muscles. In mammals NRF1 functions as atranscription factor that activates the expression of theEIF2S1 (EIF2-alpha) gene. This protein links thetranscriptional modulation of key metabolic genes tocellular growth and development and has been implicatedin the control of nuclear genes required for respiration,heme biosynthesis, and mitochondrial DNA transcriptionand replication. NRF1 forms a homodimer and binds DNAas a dimer. NRF1 shows a nuclear localization and iswidely expressed in embryonic, fetal, and adult tissues.Phosphorylation of NRF1 enhances DNA binding. Multiplesplice variants have been identified for this protein.

Recommended Dilution
This protein A purified antibody has beentested for use in ELISA, immunohistochemistry and by westernblot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by theend user. Expect a band approximately 67 kDa in sizecorresponding to NRF1 by western blotting in the appropriate celllysate or extract. Splice variants exist for this protein that mayresult in the detection of lower molecular weight bands.

Specificity
This protein A purified antibody is directed against mouse NRF1. The product was purified frommonospecific antiserum by protein A affinity purification. BLAST analysis was used to suggest reactivity with this protein frommouse, human, chimpanzee, dog, rat, chicken, frog and zebrafish based on very high sequence homology with theimmunogen sequence. Cross reactivity with NRF1 homologues from other sources has not been determined.
