Anti-MAFF (C-Terminal) antibody produced in rabbit

The MAFF gene is located on the human chromosome at 22q13.1. The encoded protein is a small MAF protein and is expressed in the nucleus.

v-maf avian musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog F (MAFF) is a transcription factor which does not have a transactivation domain but possesses a leucine-zipper.

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 147-163 of human MAFF (isoform a). The immunizing peptide does not cross-react with other members of the family.

Anti-MAFF (c-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in:

• western blotting
• chromatin immunoprecipitation (chip)
• co-immunoprecipitation
• immunoprecipitation

Anti-MAFF (C-terminal) specifically recognizes MAFF.

The small MAF proteins are associated with many physiological processes including development, differentiation, hematopoiesis and stress response. Interestingly, these proteins regulate the stress response via different mechanisms. The MAFF gene is down-regulated in diabetes mellitus 1 patient. This gene is underexpressed in acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (ALL) patients.

v-maf avian musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog F (MAFF) has been shown to interact with other transcription factors and it associates with certain regulatory sequences in the gene encoding the oxytocin receptor.

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, and 15 mM sodium azide.

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
