General description

Monoclonal Anti-TRF1 (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the TRF-78 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from mice immunized with a human TRF1 protein produced in baculovirus. TRF1 and TRF2 (TTAGGG repeat binding factors) are two major proteins that bind to human telomers. TRF1 has a DNA binding domain with high homology to the Myb family of transcription factors. Unlike the Myb family that contains only one DNA binding motif, TRF1 has multiple of this motif.

Specificity

Monoclonal Anti-TRF1 recognizes human TRF1.

Immunogen

human TRF1 protein produced in baculovirus.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-TRF1 antibody produced in mouse has been used in Western blotting and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Biochem/physiol Actions

TRF1 (TTAGGG repeat binding factor 1) has a negative effect on the length of the telomer. Overexpression of TRF1 in cancer cells that contain telomerase activity, causes the shortening of the length of their telomers. While inhibition of TRF1 causes the elongation of telomers. It was shown that the level of TRF1 in the cells does not affect the expression of the telomerase protein. This suggests that TRF1 may act directly on the activity of the telomerase protein. Tankyrase is a protein that interacts with TRF1 and its C-terminal region is homologous to poly (adenosine dinucleotide phosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerase (PARP). In response to DNA damage, the PARP protein mediates ADP-ribose polymers of protein acceptors. In vitro studies have shown that tankyrase is responsible for that polyribosylation of TRF1, which in turn abolishes its ability to bind telomers.

Physical form

Bortezomib inhibits the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway to achieve its anti-cancer effect and its well characterized activity is the NF-κB inhibition through which the anti-apoptotic bcl-2 expression is down-regulated and apoptosis is subsequently induced. However, the downstream molecular targets of bortezomib are

We observed extra-telomeric binding of the telomere repeat binding factor TRF2 within the promoter of the cyclin-dependent kinase CDKNIA (p21/CIP1/WAF1). This result in TRF2 induced transcription repression of p21. Interestingly, p21 repression was through engagement of the REST-coREST-LSD1-repressor complex and
