Target
CIITA
(Class II, Major Histocompatibility Complex, Transactivator (CIITA))
Anti-CIITA antibody detects CIITA. The transactivator CIITA regulates basal and interferon-induced expression of Major Histocompatibility Complex class II genes. CIITA restores expression of all MHC class II gene expression in mutant cells and corrects regulatory defects of MHC class II genes. Antibodies to this transactivator are useful in the study of diseases of pathological MHC class II expression. Antigen can be obtained from Raji cell lysates. Typically levels of CIITA expression are too low to detect endogenous levels of protein expression. Transiently transfected cells are usually employed to study this transcription factor.
