RABBIT ANTI IRF1

Rabbit anti Human IRF1 antibody recognizes the interferon regulatory factor 1.

IRF1 encodes interferon regulatory factor 1, a member of the interferon regulatory transcription factor (IRF) family. IRF1 serves as an activator of interferons alpha and beta transcription, and in mouse it has been shown to be required for double-stranded RNA induction of these genes. IRF1 also functions as a transcription activator of genes induced by interferons alpha, beta, and gamma. Further, IRF1 has been shown to play roles in regulating apoptosis and tumor-suppressoion (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008).

Rabbit anti Human IRF1 antibody detects a band of 47 kDa. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.
