Application & Usage Western blotting (1:500 – 1:2000). HeLa cell nuclear extract can be used as a positive control. However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually. The antibody recognizes the MCAF of human and mouse origins. Reactivity to other species has not been tested.

Protein Information
Name ATF7IP (HGNC:20092)
Synonyms MCAF, MCAF1
Function Recruiter that couples transcriptional factors to general transcription apparatus and thereby modulates transcription regulation and chromatin formation. Can both act as an activator or a repressor depending on the context. Required for HUSH-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing (PubMed:27732843). Mediates MBD1-dependent transcriptional repression, probably by recruiting complexes containing SETDB1 (PubMed:12665582). Stabilizes SETDB1, is required to stimulate histone methyltransferase activity of SETDB1 and facilitates the conversion of dimethylated to trimethylated H3 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3). The complex formed with MBD1 and SETDB1 represses transcription and couples DNA methylation and histone H3 'Lys-9' trimethylation (H3K9me3) (PubMed:14536086, PubMed:27732843). Facilitates telomerase TERT and TERC gene expression by SP1 in cancer cells (PubMed:19106100).
Cellular Location Nucleus
Tissue Location Detected at low levels in breast, lung and stomach; highly up-regulated in the corresponding cancerous tissues (at protein level).

Background

MBD1-Containing Chromatin-Associated Factor (MCAF) associates with methyl CpG-binding protein (MBD1) that functions to recruit methyltransferases such as SETDB1 to chromatin. MCAF is required for the transcriptional repression and heterochromatin formation mediated by MBD1 and SETDB1.
