GLIS1 (Glis Family Zinc Finger 1) belongs to a GLIS subfamily of Krüppel-like zinc-finger transcription factors characterized to regulate a set of downstream targets essential for cellular functions, including pancreatic development, b-cell maturation and maintenance, and insulin production. GLIS1 is enriched in unfertilized eggs and embryos and it can be used to promote direct reprogramming of somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells). GLIS1 may regulate the expression of numerous genes, either positively or negatively, and is implicated in mitral valve development, where dysregulation may lead to mitral valve prolapse (MVP). GLIS1 antibody (mAb) (Clone 7-14) was raised in a Rat host. It has been validated for use in Immunofluorescence and Western blot, it has been shown to react with Human and Mouse samples.
Purification
Protein G Chromatography
Immunogen
This antibody was raised against a peptide within the amino-terminal half of human GLIS1 (GLI-similar 1), which shares homology with mouse GLIS1.
Optimal working dilution should be determined by the investigator.
