General description

GAL4 is a transcriptional activator which controls the expression of genes involved in the catabolism of galactose. In addition to a DNA-binding domain, Gal4 contains two acidic regions: activating region I (aa148-238) and activating region II (aa768-881), which can both activate transcription when independently joined to the DNA-binding domain. The activation domains of Gal4 have been shown to interact with Gal80, TBP, SUG1, and ADA2, among other general transcription factors.

Immunogen

Epitope: C-terminus

GST-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to the C-terminus of yeast GAL4 (activation domain).

Linkage

Replaces: 06-283

Physical form

Affinity purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in Gal4 positive and Gal4 negative yeast cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:160,000 dilution of this antibody detected Gal4 in 5 mg of Gal4 positive (+ recombinant Gal4) yeast cell lysate. This antibody also detected small mounts of endogenous Gal4 in Gal4 negative (- recombinant Gal4) yeast cell lysate.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes the C-terminus of GAL4 (activation domain).

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at 2-8°C from date of receipt.
