Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects transcription factor Sp1 in human and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 80.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 90 kDa.
Transcription factor Sp1 (SP1) is a zinc finger protein that binds GC-rich promoter elements and regulates a very large number of genes involved in growth, apoptosis, differentiation and immune responses. Its activity is tuned by phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation and other modifications, and it is one of the most studied general transcription regulators.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Rat) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human Caco-2 cells, human Jurkat cells, human COLO320 whole, rat testis tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human SP1. It differs from the mouse and rat sequences at two residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human and rat. UniProt places transcription factor Sp1 in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Up-regulated in adenocarcinomas of the stomach (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
