Target/Specificity | This UBTF antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 631-660 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human UBTF. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | UBTF Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | UBTF |
---|---|
Synonyms | UBF, UBF1 |
Function | Recognizes the ribosomal RNA gene promoter and activates transcription mediated by RNA polymerase I (Pol I) through cooperative interactions with the transcription factor SL1/TIF-IB complex. It binds specifically to the upstream control element and can activate Pol I promoter escape. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P25976} |

Background
Upstream binding factor (UBF) is a transcription factor required for expression of the 18S, 5.8S, and 28S ribosomal RNAs, along with SL1 (a complex of TBP (MIM 600075) and multiple TBP-associated factors or 'TAFs'). Two UBF polypeptides, of 94 and 97 kD, exist in the human (Bell et al., 1988 [PubMed 3413483]). UBF is a nucleolar phosphoprotein with both DNA binding and transactivation domains. Sequence-specific DNA binding to the core and upstream control elements of the human rRNA promoter is mediated through several HMG boxes (Jantzen et al., 1990 [PubMed 2330041]).
