Related Product Information for
anti-USF1 antibody
Upstream stimulatory factor 1 (UFS-1) is a 33.5kD nuclear protein that exhibits site-specific DNA binding activating the transcription through pyrimidine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs. USF-1 is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family and can function as a cellular transcription factor.This protein has been associated to familial combined hyperlipidemia.

NCBI Summary for USF1
This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family, and can function as a cellular transcription factor. The encoded protein can activate transcription through pyrimidine-rich initiator (Inr) elements and E-box motifs. This gene has been linked to familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL). Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
UniProt Comments for USF1
USF1: Transcription factor that binds to a symmetrical DNA sequence (E-boxes) (5'-CACGTG-3') that is found in a variety of viral and cellular promoters. Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Binds DNA as an homodimer or a heterodimer (USF1/USF2). Interacts with varicella-zoster virus IE62 protein.
Protein type: Transcription factor; DNA-binding
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q22-q23
Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; transcription factor complex; nucleus
Molecular Function: RNA polymerase II transcription factor activity, enhancer binding; protein binding; enzyme binding; protein homodimerization activity; sequence-specific DNA binding; protein heterodimerization activity; histone deacetylase binding; double-stranded DNA binding; bHLH transcription factor binding; protein kinase binding
