The sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1 (SREBF1) is a transcription factor that binds to the sterol regulatory element-1 (SRE1), which is a decamer flanking the low density lipoprotein receptor gene and some genes involved in sterol biosynthesis (1). The related protein SREBF2 also binds SRE1 and activates transcription in an additive fashion to SREBF1 (2). SREBF1 is synthesized as a precursor that is attached to the nuclear membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. Following cleavage, the mature protein translocates to the nucleus and activates transcription by binding to the SRE1 (3). The SREBF1 proteins are important in the regulation of genes involved in lipid metabolism, while SREBF2 has been more closely associated with cholesterol synthesis and accumulation (4).
Anti-SREBF1 Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, Western Blotting, Immunohistochemistry and Immunofluorescence. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at approximately 122 kDa in Western Blots of specific cell lysates and tissues.
