Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human Ataxin 1, different from the related mouse and rat sequences by one amino acid.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 105 kDa; calculated MW: 86923 MW
- Reactivity: Human,Mouse,Rat
- Applications: Flow Cytometry, IF, IHC, ICC, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
Ataxin-1; Ataxin-1. Ataxin-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ATXN1 gene. The ATXN1 gene had been mapped to 6p23 by in situ hybridization. Ataxin-1 (ATXN1), a causative factor for spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1), and the related Brother of ATXN1 (BOAT1) are human proteins involved in transcriptional repression. ATXN1 and BOAT1 might participate in several Notch-controlled developmental and pathological processes. Functional note: Chromatin-binding factor that repress Notch signaling in the absence of Notch intracellular domain by acting as a CBF1 corepressor. Binds to the HEY promoter and might assist, along with NCOR2, RBPJ-mediated repression. Binds RNA in vitro. May be involved in RNA metabolism. . Reported localization: Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Colocalizes with USP7 in the nucleus. . Expression/tissue context: Widely expressed throughout the body. .

Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative ATXN1 (Ataxin-1) levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.
- IHC/IHC-F: assess spatial distribution of ATXN1 (Ataxin-1) across tissue regions and cell types using matched controls.
- IF/ICC: evaluate subcellular localization and co-localization patterns; signal can depend on fixation/permeabilization and epitope accessibility.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and shifts in expression; gating strategy and background staining controls are essential.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Specificity notes: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Cross-reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins
- Family / similarity context: Belongs to the ATXN1 family.
- Isoforms and PTMs: Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.
- Controls: Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD/KO samples when available.
