Anti-SPDEF

Application

Rabbit polyclonal anti-SPDEF (AB1) antibody is used to tag SAM pointed domain containing ets transcription factor for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of SAM pointed domain containing ets transcription factor in the differentiation of Paneth and goblet cells and mucin production.

Rabbit Anti-SPDEF (AB1) antibody can be used for western blot applications at a concentration of 1µg/ml.

General description

SAM pointed domain containing ets transcription factor (SPDEF, PDEF) is involved in the regulation of terminal differentiation of goblet/Paneth progenitor cells into intestinal Paneth and goblet cells. SPDEF plays a critical role in regulating a transcriptional network mediating IL-13-induced MUC5AC synthesis dependent on STAT6.

SPDEF suppresses the metastasis of prostate cancer and modulates goblet cell hyperplasia in airway epithelial cells.Rabbit Anti-SPDEF (AB1) antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, bovine, pig, and canine SPDEF.
