General description

Activation Protein transcription factor 2 (AP-2) is a developmentally modulated transcription factor that binds to specific sequence such as CCCCAGGC or related sequences. These sequences are usually present in several promoter and enhancer gene regions, including the promoters of the AP-2 genes themselves,,. AP-2 expression has also been linked to human breast cancer cells.
By immunoblotting, rabbit anti-AP-2α reacts specifically with human AP-2α. The sequence recognized by the antibody differs from the corresponding mouse sequence by one residue and from the chicken sequence by 2 residues.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to human AP-2α, C-terminal sequence, (amino acids 420-437) conjugated to KLH with glutaraldehyde.

Application

Rabbit anti-AP-2alpha antibody can be used for western blot (1:250), microarray and indirect immunofluorescence (1:100) assays.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide

The AP-2 transcription factors are required for normal growth and morphogenesis during mammalian development. Previous in vitro studies have also indicated that the AP-2 family of proteins may be involved in the etiology of human breast cancer. The AP-2 genes

The AP-2 family of transcription factors are defined by the presence of a novel DNA binding domain, termed a 'basic helix-span-helix' motif. The AP-2 genes regulate important aspects of vertebrate embryogenesis and have also been linked to the control of

The expression of the transcription factor AP-2 recently has been shown to be enhanced during retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation of NT2 cells, a human teratocarcinoma cell line. Here we show that this induction of AP-2 mRNA is at the level

A high basal expression of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) has been reported in aggressive breast cancer cells, according to an unknown mechanism, and contributes to their invasive abilities. Here, we report the involvement of Sp1 and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) transcription

Manganese superoxide dismutase plays a role in breast tumor cell growth, which depends on its constitutive expression. However, the mechanisms responsible for the regulation of constitutive SOD2 gene expression at different malignant phenotype in breast cancers remain to be determined.
