Gene Information

human ... YY1(7528)

General description

The gene YY1 (Yin Yang 1) encodes a protein belonging to the GLI-Krüppel gene family. It is a zinc finger protein that is ubiquitously expressed. The YY1 gene is mapped to human chromosome 14q32.

Immunogen

YY1 (NP_003394, 221 a.a. ~ 320 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-YY1 antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

YY1 (Yin Yang 1) is a transcriptional repressor protein encoded by the YY1 gene in humans. It regulates diverse biological processes and may have an important role in carcinogenesis. Its expression is found to be upregulated in gastric cancer cell lines and primary gastric cancers. YY1 is found to contribute to carcinogenesis in gastric cancer. This DNA-binding protein is found to regulate the activity of the c-fos promoter. YY1 has roles in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression.
