Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-human HIF1α

HIF1, hypoxia induced factor 1, is a heterodimeric basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor composed of HIF1α and HIF1β. HIF1β is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (Arnt). Under normoxic conditions, HIF1α undergoes prolyl hydroxylation, which leads to degradation of HIF1α by the proteasome. Oxygen-starvation inhibits prolyl hydroxylation and prevents proteasomal degradation of HIF1α. Following nuclear translocation, HIF1α binds to the core DNA sequence 5'-[AG]CGTG-3' within the hypoxia responsive element (HRE); only the HIF1 heterodimer can bind DNA. HIF1 is a master regulator of the response to hypoxia and induces transcription of multiple genes, including VEGF, glucose transporters, and proteins that aid in adaptation to hypoxic conditions. HIF1 protein is also involved in angiogenesis and energy metabolism.PRODUCT DETAILSClone: 546-16Antibody Type: MonoclonalReactivity: HumanFormat: Alexa Fluor 488Host: MouseIsotype: IgG2b, κApplications: ICFC - Quality testedRegu
