Product Overview
Clone IGD-5 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes transcription factor E2F1 in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 46.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 65–70 kDa.
E2F1 is the founding member of the E2F transcription factor family. Paired with a DP partner, it switches on genes needed for DNA replication and the G1-to-S transition, and its activity is held in check by the retinoblastoma protein (RB). E2F1 can also induce apoptosis and is widely studied in cell cycle control and cancer.
