Specificity / Sensitivity
GATA-1 (D24E4) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of GATA-1 protein.
Species Reactivity: Human
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ala184 of human GATA-1.
Background
GATA proteins comprise a group of transcription factors that are related by the presence of conserved zinc finger DNA-binding domains, which bind directly to the nucleotide sequence core element GATA (1-3). There are six vertebrate GATA proteins, designated GATA-1 to GATA-6 (3). GATA-1 is the founding member of the GATA family and is required for erythroid and megakaryocytic cell development (4,5). Mutations in the corresponding gene are linked to many human diseases, including acute megakaryoblastic leukemia in Down Syndrome children (DS-AMKL), X-linked thrombocytopenia, and gray platelet syndrome (6-9).
