Product Overview
GFI1B polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of GFI1B protein.
Growth factor independent 1 (Gfi-1) is a transcriptional repressor that spe-cifically binds to the DNA consensus sequence TAAATCAC(A/T)GCA. The carboxy-terminus of Gfi-1 contains six C2H2-type zinc finger motifs, and zinc fingers 3, 4 and 5 are required for the binding of Gfi-1 to its DNA binding site. Gfi-1 also contains a 20 amino acid SNAG domain which mediates transcriptional repression. It represses Bax at the mRNA and protein levels, resulting in the inhibition of cell death. Gfi-1 is expressed outside the lymphoid system in granulocytes and activated macrophages.

This antibody has been validated for WB. Always refer to the product datasheet for recommended dilution ranges and appropriate positive control samples for each application type.
Validated reactivity has been confirmed for Human, Mouse, Rat. Cross-reactivity with additional species may exist based on sequence homology but has not been confirmed by the manufacturer. For unlisted species, we recommend running a preliminary validation experiment.
This antibody was raised in Rabbit. For indirect detection (WB, IHC, IF), select an anti-Rabbit secondary antibody that matches the isotype. For direct detection, check the variant selector for conjugated formats. Confirm secondary antibody compatibility before ordering.

Please refer to the storage conditions on the product label and datasheet. As a general best practice: upon receipt, aliquot into single-use volumes to minimize freeze-thaw cycling, which can progressively reduce antibody performance and lead to aggregation.
Validated reactivity covers Human, Mouse, Rat samples. Performance can vary across different cell lines and tissue types depending on target antigen expression levels and epitope accessibility. We recommend verifying target expression in your specific model system using a known positive control before proceeding to experimental samples.
