Anti-MSL1 antibody produced in rabbit

The gene MSL1 (male specific lethal 1 homolog) encodes a histone acetyl transferase-associated protein that spans a length of 614 amino acid residues. It does not contain any globular domains.

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

The gene MSL1 (male specific lethal 1 homolog) encodes a protein associated with mammalian MOF (male-absent-on-the-first)-MSL (male-specific-lethal) complex that is also referred to as the ‘dosage compensation complex′ (DCC). This complex is involved in the equalization of X-chromosomal genes expression between males and females. It is found to form a complex with Nupr1 (nuclear protein 1) in the nucleus in response to DNA-damage and may be involved in DNA repair activity. MSL1 protein is found to regulate acetylation of global histone H4 via its interaction with KAT8 (lysine acetyltransferase 8).

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
