Immunocytochemistry analysis of ETV1 in Hela cells. The samples were fixed with PFA and permeabilized in 0.1% Triton X-100, then blocked in 10% serum for 45 minutes at 25°C. Samples were incubated with ETV1 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA5-101118) and mouse anti-beta tubulin antibody for 1 hour at 37°C. An AlexaFluor594 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG(H+L) (Red) and an AlexaFluor488 conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG(H+L) (Green) were used as the secondary antibodies. The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). View more
Antibody detects endogenous levels of total ER81.
ETV1: ets variant gene 1. Several members of the Ets gene family encode sequence-specific DNA binding proteins that recognize DNA sequences with a centrally located 5'-GGAA-3' element. All of the Ets proteins recognize the same central core sequence but each protein interacts with unique sequences that flank this core. ER81 (also designated ETV1) binds the motif 5'-CGGAA/T-3'. ER81 is highly expressed in brain, testis, lung and heart. ER81 is also moderately expressed in spleen, pancreas, colon and small intestine. During development, ER81 displays a unique expression patterns which suggests that this transcriptional factor might play an important role in organogenesis. ERK-1 activates ER81 transcriptional activity while MAPKAP kinase 2 inhibits ER81.
