Gene Information

human ... TFAP2A(7020)

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human TFAP2A

Application

Anti-TFAP2A antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.25 μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

TFAP2A is a transcription factor that has both activator and repressor activities. The genes regulated by TFAP2A are involved in cell-type-specific proliferation and differentiation during embryonic development. Anomalies of TFAP2A have been observed in branchiooculofacial syndrome. Abnormalities in TFAP2A protein contribute to abnormal maturation in placenta in high-risk pregnancies.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: NLISHGFGSPAVCAAVTALQNYLTEALKAMDKMYLSNNPNSHTDNNAKSS

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

Recent studies from our laboratory have indicated that the transcription factor activator protein-2α plays a critical role in the differentiation of human villous cytotrophoblast cells to syncytiotrophoblast cells. However, little is known about the expression of activator protein-2α in placentas

Branchio-Oculo-Facial syndrome (BOFS) is a rare, autosomal dominant developmental disorder that has a distinct phenotype with characteristic craniofacial abnormalities. We report a family with extensive ocular manifestations of BOFS caused by a novel mutation in the transcription factor AP-2 alpha

The AP-2 family of transcription factors consists of five different proteins in humans and mice: AP-2alpha, AP-2beta, AP-2gamma, AP-2delta and AP-2epsilon. Frogs and fish have known orthologs of some but not all of these proteins, and homologs of the family
