GRHL1 (grainyhead-like transcription factor 1) is a transcription factor, which is a member of the GRHL family, which also includes GRHL2 and GRHL3. This gene has a high level of expression in developing mouse skin. This gene is localized to human chromosome 2p25.1.
Synonyms: Anti-Grainyhead-like protein 1 homolog antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-Mammalian grainyhead antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-NH32 antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-Transcription factor CP2-like 2 antibody produced in rabbit; Anti-Transcription factor LBP-32 antibody produced in rabbit
Storage: -20C
Application: Anti-GRHL1 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org). Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.
Biochem Physiol Actions: GRHL1 (grainyhead-like transcription factor 1) is a regulator of desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) protein, and thus, controls differentiation of epidermis, and hair anchorage. In mice, inactivation of this gene leads to slow coat growth. It acts as a tumor suppressor in neuroblastoma, where the expression of this gene is repressed by HDAC3 (histone deacetylase) and MYCN (V-Myc avian myelocytomatosis viral oncogene neuroblastoma derived homolog).
