MITF Antibody

• Gene Name:

  Microphthalmia-associated transcription factor

• Gene Aliases:

  MI, WS2, CMM8, WS2A, COMMAD, bHLHe32

• Gene ID:

  4286; 17342

• Reactivity:

  Human, Mouse

• Immunogen:

  Synthesized peptide derived from human MITF around the non-phosphorylation site of S180. Location: 120-200aa.

• Target:

  This gene encodes a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. It regulates the differentiation and development of melanocytes retinal pigment epithelium and is also responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
